It’s a funny thing when you can personally relate to a movie’s tagline. The slogan for
CITY OF EMBER reminds of my the same sentence that kept going through my head fourteen years ago when I followed that man back to his car for a promised Mr. Big, and I ended up drugged somehow in his backseat. Believing that slogan is the only reason I’m still here today, and I firmly believe that. CITY OF EMBER is based on an acclaimed novel and is directed by the promising young Gil Kenan, whose first film was the Spielberg-backed gem MONSTER HOUSE. The film has a wonderful cast that includes Bill Murray, Saoirse Ronan, Tim Robbins, Martin Landau, Toby Jones and Harry Treadaway. Click on the banner ABOVE to head over to
Cinematical for a full look at the poster and a plot synopsis. CITY OF EMBER opens on October 10th.
Extra Tidbit:
Tom Hanks is producing the f*ck out of this shit.

Also, when I saw the image on this site I thought OMG this seems like it could be so cool. Then I realized it was like some kids fantasy thing, probably animated right? Consider me super disappointed. A tagline like that would have made good for a cool movie.
