Soon, he finds out, the whole concert is a trap.
From there, well, the trailer can show you.
Which is interesting for a whole bunch of reasons.
The main one is, does the film want us to see him get caught?
Does it paint him as the villain he clearly is?
Are we rooting against him?
If so, how does that work?
If not, what does that say about us and the film?
Everything else developed from there.
So were very curious to see how this movie balances all of these threads.
Well find out sooner rather than later as Trap will be out August 9.
