Our first look at a trailer for Rick. "From best-selling children's author, Daniel Handler (aka "Lemony Snicket"), comes a morally reprehensible movie that's definitely not for children. It's a fairy tale of New York all about internet porn, carnivorous capitalism and cold-blooded murder, just in time for the holiday season. Meet Rick (Bill Pullman). Trapped in an upper management job that's paid him buckets of cash in exchange for his soul, he's dominated by a boss who's a third his age, adrift on a sea of corporate testosterone, brutalizing his employees every time he opens his mouth. His only connection to humanity is his daughter, Eve, who's growing up and drifting away from her dad, downing before-dinner cocktails and cruising older men on the internet. Like all of us, Rick has given the best years of his life to a company that couldn't care less, he's alienated from the people he loves, and he faces daily humiliation. And like all of us, he gets through the day by contemplating revenge on those he blames for his failed life. Unlike us, however, Rick not only has revenge's business card, he's been offered a promotional discount."
