Trespass
What's It About?
A rich family are the victims of a home invasion.
 

Trailer:



PREDICTION:
"The plot has been done before- but seeing a movie starring two great, yet very different actors- the quirky Nicholas Cage and the conservative Nicole Kidman, is worth seeing!"

*

Trailer:

PREDICTION:
"Even with three comedic forces: Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson- this looks boring and not funny at all!"
