First reactions: What are people saying about the Cosmopolis teaser??

Oh No They Didn’t:

The David Cronenberg we’ve been missing since Spider is B A C K and Robert Pattinson is along for the ride.

Twitch:

Old Dave is coming back with Cosmopolis. The first teaser for the adaptation of Don Delillo’s novel has arrived online and it’s full of all the kink fans have come to expect from Cronenberg. It also puts to rest any worries about the casting of Robert Pattinson, who seems to fit into this world perfectly.

Indiewire/The Playlist:

It looks, to be frank, absolutely brilliant, and it’s certainly dampened any doubts we might have had for the time being. And R-Patz? Damned if he doesn’t look, in the very brief glimpses, right at home.

Hey U Guys:

I don’t know if this trailer would be classed as a red band trailer but I think it’s as close to red band as you can get without getting it actually being so….pretty raunchy and hard hitting….it does look pretty great from the 34 second trailer that we have here.

Premiere (France):

Robert Pattinson is sexy and violent in Cosmopolis teaser.

Après ses années Twilight, Cosmopolis est le film qui doit le faire passer du statut de poster boy à celui d’acteur majeur. Et aussi court soit-il ce trailer permet de voir la puissance magnétique de R-Patz (la scène où il déambule dans la ruelle, monstrueuse), son intrépidité et la radicalité du changement de registre opéré (Robert Pattinson se fait viser par une pute à moitié nue, s’explose la main à coup de .38 et déambule dans les boites newyorkaises).

translated:

After his Twilight, Cosmopolis is the movie that has to do go from being a poster boy than a major player. And as short as it allows the trailer to see the magnetic power of R-Patz (the scene where he walks down the street, monstrous), his fearlessness and radical change registry operated (Robert Pattinson is aiming for a whore half naked, is exploding hand shot .38 and wanders the boxes newyorkaises).

Up and Comers:

As the British actor looks to shed his Twilight image, and the famed director aims to gain back some of the critical acclaim that rumours would suggest he has recently lost, we see Pattinson’s Eric Packer shoot himself in the hand, have sex in a limosine and ask us darkly to “show me something I don’t know”.

Actually, it looks like Pattinson is showing us something we don’t know.

Horror Smorgasbord:

Can you survive a journey into the mind of David Cronenberg.  His movies are twisted,depraved and fucking genius in my opinion.  Even though Twi-hards will see Mr. Pattinson’s name on the poster this role will be nothing like they are probably use to seeing from the actor.  Either way it’s a Cronenberg film so sign me up

ScreenRush:

The teaser, while brief, is intriguing and definitely looks to have the cerebral Cronenberg touch he is so well known for as well as some serious gnarly violence.

Down With Film:

Okay so that is one hell of a teaser trailer. It looks like Cronenberg is really on to a winner here!! Could this be the role I finally fall for Robert Pattinson?
