TrailerMovie by Joey Paur

The first trailer for Al Pacino and Christopher Walken's new film Stand Up Guys has been released, and it looks like it's going to be a great movie. The story follows two aging criminals, one of whom has been hired to kill his friend. They decide to enjoy one last night of debauchery in which they hit up a brothel, steal some cars, and evade police but also face the choices they made in their lives. It's pretty cool to see two legendary actors like Pacino and Walken up on the big screen together. The movie was directed by Fisher Stevens, and also stars Alan ArkinJulianna Margulies, and Vanessa Ferlito.

Here's the Synopsis:

Val (Al Pacino) is released from prison after serving twenty-eight years for refusing to give up one of his close criminal associates. His best friend Doc (Christopher Walken) is there to pick him up, and the two soon re-team with another old pal, Hirsch. Their bond is as strong as ever, and the three reflect on freedom lost and gained, loyalties ebbed and flowed, and days of glory gone by. And despite their age, their capacity for mayhem is still very much alive and well - bullets fly as they make a hilariously valiant effort to compensate for the decades of crime, drugs and sex they've missed. But one of the friends is keeping a dangerous secret- he's been put in an impossible quandary by a former mob boss, and his time to find an acceptable alternative is running out. As the sun rises on the guys' legendary reunion, their position becomes more and more desperate and they finally confront their past once and for all.

The movie comes out on January 1tth, 2013, and I'll definitely be checking it out! Will you?
