He's a mortician, for god's sake. He should know how to do makeup and hair ...

Exactly. That was the whole point why they made his character a mortician so he can help with the "make-over". It's funny how the critic totally missed that specially when it's on almost every story description. :lol:

I think I've lost count on the number of trailers released :P
I was ambivalent towards seeing this, but I may just go watch it in the theaters.

Well, I wouldn't be too worried if the screening reviews were mostly positive. It really seems like a different movie from what people were expecting. For every group of positive reviews, there will be a scathing/negative one for every film released, so *shrug*...

They will release it for one week in NY starting from Dec 21 and in LA and San Francisco starting Dec 23. I'm not sure which theaters though since it's just for an awards qualifying run.
