A critic, Christopher Orr, at The New Republic felt like the trailer to the new film 21 gave away everything about the movie. So he reviewed the movie after watching just the trailer. Then, he updated the review after seeing the film.
Interesting as an exercise and as fodder to those of us who feel trailers give away waaaayyyyyy too much of the movies they promote. I wonder though, if you critiqued trailers and movies like this on a regular basis how often would you find the trailer gave too much away and how often the trailer misrepresented the movie entirely.
