VIDEO: Your Weekend Movies... Star Trek and muddy McConaughey

Cinema trip this weekend? TheJournal.ie brings you snippets from new releases to help you decide where to put your money…

WHICH NEW MOVIE release is worth the price of a cinema ticket this weekend?

We’re here to help you decide just that, with these trailers.

Mud

(movieclipsTRAILERS)

For fans of: Matthew McConaughey’s brain, southern drawls, mud

Avoid if: You prefer not-so-mysterious characters

Thought Matthew McConaughey was just a pretty boy with a good six pack and a sexy drawl? Stop that thinking immediately, OK? He has been popping up in all manner of interesting films, as characters a million miles from what he is stereotyped as. Here, he plays a mysterious man with a dark past who lives in seclusion until he is discovered by two young naive boys. What ensues looks like it will be both disturbing and gripping.

Deadfall

For fans of: Being on the run

Avoid if: You prefer summer

Eric Bana and Olivia Wilde join forces to play a brother and sister on the run from a casino heist that went arseways. This seems like the kind of film that promises much and delivers little.

Star Trek Into Darkness

(movieclipsTRAILERS/YouTube)

For fans of: Benedict Cumberbatch, good eyebrows

Avoid if: The force is with you

Good ol’ JJ Abrams is back with another blockbuster that brings us another adventure for the re-booted Star Trek crew, led by a young Captain Kirk (Chris Pine). As expected, this is full-on action from the get-go, with Benedict Cumberbatch on hand as the evil baddie with a remarkably deep voice (autotune, anyone?). Check out our review here – does it match up to the 2009 film?
