THE PERFECT SLEEP… Oldman, Rutten, Bono all say DO NOT GO SEE THIS MOVIE! by COOP

Obviously a fantastic put-on, the creators of the new Noir/Martial Arts film “The Perfect Sleep” have gotten Gary Oldman, UFC fighting legend Bas Rutten and Bono to speak out AGAINST this movie in a hilariously bizarre promotional video.

Yep, you heard me right… It’s a “film noir” film mixed with martial arts. It’s a genre hybrid gimmick but sometimes these gimmicks work. Anyone who saw “Brick” (*****), will agree that mixing detective film noir with another genre (in this case, angsty high school teens) can result in an original and amazing film.

The creators of “The Perfect Sleep” are using reverse psychology. Think of it this way, if you have three well-known celebrities screaming at you, telling you to NOT see this movie, are you gonna see it? Absolutely.

Check out the weird trailer below…

Now watch Oldman, Rutten and Bono throw hissy fits, warning you to NOT see this movie… Especially Oldman who in a moment of inspiration, repeats his most famous line from “Leon: The Professional.” I admit, seeing him scream “EVERYONE!!!” made me cheer…

And if you haven’t seen the sublime noir film “Brick,” here’s a trailer. Rent this one immediately!…
