There's no big stars. Not a fair comparison.

I saw a trailer for it, and they didn't do a very good job. I didn't have any idea what it was supposed to be about until I saw the title at the end.

I appreciate not giving away the story in the trailer, but I think they went too far in the opposite direction.
