Kevin Spacey Dusts Off His Al Pacino Impression in Official Casino Jack Trailer

Hoo-ah! Back in 1997, Kevin Spacey hosted Saturday Night Live and showed off a number of fairly spot-on impressions: Christopher Walken, Walter Matthau, Jack Lemmon and, of course, Al Pacino. As the first official trailer for Casino Jack can attest, over 13 years later, the man's still got it -- at least when it comes to Pacino. Though if you're asking yourself why Spacey does a Pacino impersonation in the middle of a film about D.C. lobbyist Jack Abramoff, you're not alone.

The Latest Tangled Trailer Presents a Hair-Raising Adventure

Kenny Powers Gets a Gun in the Trailer for Eastbound & Down

"A man who has seen the things I've seen; experienced the loss and pain that I've experienced... I transcend race, hombre." So says Kenny Powers at the beginning of the first real trailer for the second season of HBO's Eastbound & Down. That the disgraced former Major Leaguer -- who escaped to Mexico during the season one finale -- has a wicked set of cornrows should come as no surprise to anyone who has seen a subway ad or billboard promoting the Sept. 26 premiere. That Powers has a collection of firearms, however, might.

Saw 3D Trailer: Can 3D Revive a Dying Genre?

The horror genre often likes to segue between bloody kill-em-offs and creepy ghost stories, and it looks like we're in the middle of that transition once again. Just as the slashers inspired by Scream eventually gave way to the J-horror of The Ring, now it seems like the torture porn genre famously led by the Saw series has ceded ground to low-budget haunted house movies like Paranormal Activity. Can Saw 3D stem the tide?

Gwyneth Paltrow Show Her Crazy Heart in the New Country Strong Trailer

Studios still think audiences want to know the entire story of a movie before they see it.
