People in the comments were quick to heap praise on the trailer. One viewer on YouTube wrote, “Ethan Hawke and Russell Crowe it can’t get better than that…it looks great.”

Another added, “The kind of movies we’ve been missing for decades now.”

A third chimed in with, “I love movies that actually look like they were shot in the real world and weren’t shot on a green screen or the Volume.”

I agree with all of that, and I think “The Weight” looks outstanding. Plus, Hawke and Crowe together is a very stacked cast. Expectations are certainly high.

You can catch “The Weight” starting Sept. 18. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
