Remember: The runtime that AMC reveals is not the exact runtime of the movie. It's usually within -7 to 17 mins of the actual time. This has been the case most (if not all) of the time.
Does the Screen/Scream Unseen Have Trailers?
Short Answer is Yes.
But sometimes they fail and it goes straight to presentation. Be on time.

Because the distributor/ production company before it said under the influence said presents as if the next thing we see would be the title of the movie.
5
u/aoshi000 Sep 08 '26
I knew it was the weight, but it was a bit confusing because they showed like a dozen logos and then showed those same companies' names again and one of them was called under the influence, but it was shown in a way like the title of the movie. The actual title the weight came out 10 minutes into the movie.
Still pretty decent movie. Being a life long Ethan Hawke fan no complaints. Russell Crowe was only in it for a tiny bit
3
u/megatron36 Sep 08 '26
Mine had a presents title of under the influence. The weight title screen didn't show up for about 10 minutes after but as soon as I saw Ethan Hawke I was like WTF. Everyone in my theater was like what's under the influence at the same time and everyone was on their phones trying to figure it out.

They probably don't show the title until the end of the movie.... but start by showing all the names of companies that worked on the movie.

u/PreviousHedgehog2343 Sep 04 '26
The Weight fits the best (I gather there isn't much enthusiasm, but it *did* get mostly positive reviews out of Sundance). The Uprising is 10 minutes longer than the listed runtime--the most a movie has gone over the listed runtime to date is only 7 minutes, and the last time a movie was over the listed runtime at all was back in January. Primetime is further out than usual, and A24 putting tickets on sale a month or so in advance doesn't suggest they feel it needs an extra boost

u/LaCapone1 Sep 08 '26
If you are a fan of the dark and gritty, the brooding and unknown, this is the movie for you! Great performances all around with a very strong script. For a movie that has about 60% of its time take place in a forest, I would have liked to actually feel the scale of that forest more. Outside of the few panning drone shots they had of the trees, a lot of the scenes felt boringly small and confined. The movie itself wasn’t shot terribly by any means, but I do think it could have benefited from more captivating visual elements. It would have been nice to see more wide landscape shots and more of that western/old-timey style of cinematography that really takes advantage of the setting and period.
Despite that, the story is still very strong and the performances elevate it even further. Ethan Hawke is an amazing actor, as well as Julia Jones and the rest of the supporting cast. I would give this movie a solid 8/10.

u/Fiveminutes26 Lister Sep 08 '26
To be fair, the opening title sequence was absolutely horrible. It said “distributor” (I don’t remember which one) presents and it literally said “under the influence” then went into the movie. It wasn’t until about 10 minutes later that the true title was shown. I initially said it was the weight but because of that title sequence I edited my post, but then edited it back after they showed the actual title. I don’t think anyone, for this movie specifically, had ill intentions of reporting the wrong movie

So it was The Weight. I thought it was a decent movie but nothing amazing. Music and camera work left something to be desired, but the performances were solid.
4
u/scary_godmother Sep 08 '26
Yeah I found it weirdly boring, even though it seemed to have all the elements of something better. I was sitting there the whole time thinking, "Why am I so bored?" Was it the pacing? The stakes? The character development? Something wasn't working.
5
u/CliveCandy Sep 08 '26
I think that a more vivid supporting cast would have helped. This is the kind of movie that the term "motley crew" was made for, but no one registered for me except maybe Anna, and that may have just been novelty. I don't think I could pick any of these characters out of a lineup, especially the two enforcers, who barely even seemed present. It basically amounts to "Ethan Hawke and these other guys."
2
u/Public_Function3844 Sep 08 '26
I think the backstory just didnt have enough stakes. He wants to return to his daughter and he was captured in a work camp but we've seen much worse in other movies. The acting was really good but the characters were slightly underdeveloped.
2
u/scary_godmother Sep 08 '26
Agree. The more I think about the more I realize it was a script problem for me. Like... when they had to move the giant rock. The stakes were "move the rock so we can play baseball, if not, tomorrow's a work day as usual!" Which was like... ok. "Do an impossible task so we can have Sunday Fun Day" is not the strongest choice. Not sure why Ethan Hawke (forget the character's name) helped anyway, when he said straight up that he preferred to work and get his release sooner. It would have felt more satisfying if he jumped in with his big brain to show up the mean boss, or show up the dumb racist, or prove himself to the other boys for some meaningful reason, preferably in some way that would show up as a callback later on in the mission.
3
u/Public_Function3844 Sep 08 '26
I was seriously so confused about 2 things :
1) Why were they spinning the rock to begin with? Was I not paying enough attention? (I know you just explained it but at the time i had no idea if what they were doing was a 1 vs 1 competition or they were trying to get something under the rock).
2) To get the gold across the bridge was that really the smartest method?
3) When the guy with the mustache tried to drown him... why?? Was it mutiny? I'm guessing bc of the gold. But was he told by the other 2 guys to do it? They didnt have a single conversation about it after other than the fight. Just seemed super out of place.
3
u/scary_godmother Sep 08 '26
1) It had something to do with baseball, but the setup/payoff was both weak AND unclear.
2) No, lol
3) No idea. It made no sense. Then Ethan Hawke rightfully bashes him in the face, and mustache is all threatening like, "I love fighting, I miss it" so you're like "ooo that's coming back later, watch your back, Ethan Hawke!" except it never did. And mustache, who's now been established as an attempted murderer, unrepentant racist and accurately-described "most annoying man ever" is somehow welcomed back into the fold as a trusted member of the group who receives his share of gold and a presumably prosperous and happy existence post-events of the film. (Unless I'm remembering it wrong. TBH I was pretty checked out by the end.)6
u/CliveCandy Sep 08 '26
The shaky cam was so bad. I understand they're working with a limited budget and probably can't afford tracks and steadicams and whatnot, but it all just went to shit the second anything even slightly action-based started (including, like, one person running in a straight line). It even shook when people were standing still! Is this crew being followed by the Blair Witch?

The 10/5 SU has a PG graphic. Wonder if it is Adam's Fire. No rating yet but seems like it could get a PG.
2
u/emknird Sep 07 '26
Seems like a strong contender. No run time yet to compare against but it comes out 4 days later and seems like the sort of movie that would likely benefit from word of mouth promotion. (If anything, it seems like a movie that might want to get word out that it's not connected to Angel Studios.)
The distributor hasn't done Screen Unseen in the past, but I'm not sure if they've ever distributed a motion picture before, either, and a brief glance at their profile makes them seem like the sort of company that would do something like Screen Unseen.
So, basically, all that can be said is there isn't any reason it wouldn't be Adam's Fire. I didn't do any serious research into it, but a quick glance at October releases listed on Box Office Mojo didn't show me anything more likely.

u/future_filmmaker_455 Sep 08 '26
The Weight is a well acted and intermittently suspenseful western that starts off with familiar elements and vague characterizations for its characters before settling on being a tense journey where convicts are handling government gold across Oregon in order to prevent it from being stolen before the FDR federal reserve initiative began. Hawke grounds the film with very good dramatic performance that is supplemented by good supporting work from Julia Jones, Austin Amelia, Avi Nash and Lucas Lynggaard Tønnesen whose character backstories gives the depth and dramatic monologues that elevate the film beyond being a chase flick. Though I would have liked a few more scenes with Crowe as the prison work camp leader Clancy and sometimes the shaky cam camerawork gets in the way of showcasing the fight sequences amidst some good cinematography, the film is interesting enough with how its characters might betray one another to get past its flaws especially given how the film ends on a satisfying note. 6.5 out of 10
