i don't think it's the movie/trailer per se. it's the kanye west background music that cheapens everything.

No, these are some serious low-budget looking shots. There's no expansiveness to them.

It just looks really amateur-hour to me, like they brought Uwe Boll back to do it or something.

FWIW, ramping up a director to higher budget features by 10x isn't that uncommon.

E.g. Peter Jackson did this multiple times: low budget schlock, mid budget schlock, Frighteners, Lord of the Rings

Was there a 10x jump in there though?

Those were all ballpark 10x jumps, yes. I thought we were saying AC was 10x Macbeth, maybe I misread.

No, you read right. I guess the Jackson thing was bigger than I thought?

I mean one thing is for sure, Jackson definitely _grossed_ a lot more than this guy, etc.
