Why You Probably Shouldn’t Watch Babylon A.D.

If you’re still trying to decide whether Babylon A.D. is worth spending your money on this week, there are two things you should probably note:
- The bored look on Vin Diesel’s face. (See above.)
- These words from the film’s director: “It’s pure violence and stupidity.”
And while there are times when that last sentence might be considered a compliment, Mathieu Kassovitz wasn’t trying to be funny.

IGN Releases Babylon A.D. Trailer
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: 20th Century Fox, Universal, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Foreign, Mystery, Science Fiction, Thrillers, Casting, Trailers, Upcoming Releases,
The folks over at IGN were nice enough to hand us over the trailer for Vin Diesel‘s upcoming action sci-fi thriller, Babylon A.D..
Based upon Maurice Georges Dantec’s French novel Babylon Babies, the film has been on a close watch for movie geeks everywhere since production began. French director Mathieu Kassovitz (Munich) directed the movie, which features a dominantly-French cast, including big-time French actor Gérard Depardieu!
It’s always nice to an actor going back to his or her roots. Honestly, what was he thinking when he signed on to The Pacifier?
You can expect it to hit theaters on August 29. Check out the trailer after the jump!
