If the first trailer managed to make me feel mixed about the potential of Hesher, this one just eliminates all that uncertainty. One of the things that felt so off about that first trailer was how typical it felt, like it was holding itself back from being a gritty indie flick. This one just rocked my socks off, because all the insanity wasn't held back, but it wasn't over the top. A nice touch is the end credit card being placed before the title card. I really don't care if critics take this film to pieces. I'll see it either way.

Theatrical Trailer: Hesher
And this officially makes five films on the Natalie Portman post-Black Swan film series, and this one looks like it's doing more than just having simple fun. In a change of pace, Portman isn't the main attraction to be had in here, with several different actors offering up their considerable talents. Rainn Wilson (The Office), Piper Laurie (Carrie), and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception) add their collective talents to this project. Obviously the one people are going to be talking about Levitt, seeing as he's playing a character named Hesher in a movie called Hesher. This looks like an off kilter sort of film, but it looks extreme in probably the best sense. We'll have to wait to see if there's anything Oscar worthy from it, but if anybody gets accolades for their work, it will be Gordon-Levitt. Take a look at the trailer and comment below at your earliest convenience.
