The Promotion is a film you must see, and we were given the heads up on the poster thanks to our friends at cinematical:
This was one of my favorite films from SXSW and I am glad that the rest of you will get to see it in June. It was a great film about how competitive we can get (for noble reasons), and the chaos that this drive can create. Sean William Scott and John C Reilly are outstanding in this film and riff off of each other like absolute champs. We have already done a review for this film and you can check it out by following this link.

100% agee that John Reilly has been the pits for a very long time. Way back in his Paul Thomas Anderson days he was fine and on his way to being a great character actor-that has gone by the wayside and he now guarantees that I won’t go see any movie he’s in (like Richard Gere only not so bad).
Don’t like John C Reily.
I don’t find him funny at all. He’s got the look of a trailer park landlord.
Why is that John. C Reily and Jonah Hill keep getting work? There both crap (IMO).
John C. Reily without Will Ferrel! WOO! Glad they see how funny he is and doesn’t need Ferrel to draw an audience for him anymore.
As for the poster, that is a weird placement of the title. It is like they are holding it but not really. Looks silly.
