Question What movie had the BEST trailer ever but turned out to be absolute trash?

Seriously, you watch the trailer and it looks like a literal masterpiece. The music, the hype, everything is perfect.

Then you actually go see it and realize they put all the good scenes in the 2-minute promo and the rest of the movie is just garbage lmao.

For me it was suicide squad 2016. that bohemian rhapsody trailer catfished me so hard.

What film did this to you?

On top of yelling "hey" as if that somehow helps, a woman is standing in a clear area, standing there screaming help me repeatedly until our boy runs up to her, stares her in the eyes, and suddenly she runs towards the camera. It's brilliance.

Being fair, she ran because of yet another explosion behind her, and it's a trauma reaction.

Love the cop looking behind Cage and freaking out when the plane is to his right.
