In what is Zal Batmanglij’s second feature length film, The East, has a revenge premise we’ve seen before, but it looks to take a very dark tone that is almost horror-ish. The movie stars Alexander Skarsgård, who I think is a great fit for a film like this and will most likely carry it for the most part. I’m very curious how Ellen Page will fit into this film. The movie seems to be very different for her, but she seems to be a major element to the movie. Overall, I’m semi-excited for this movie. I’m an Ellen Page fan which keeps me interested. What do you think?
The East opens on May 31.
