After releasing a so-so trailer last month for general audiences, the new red band trailer for Pain and Gain hits hard and really plays up the comedic and gruesome elements of the film. Director Michael Bay of Transformers fame has been trying to make this ‘true story’ come to life for a while and only agreed to direct Transformer 4 if he was allowed the time to tackle this “small, passion project” first.

At the turn of the year, this film made my number forty slot on my most anticipated films of 2013 because it looked like a wholesome, man’s night at the theater and this newest trailer all but affirms my suspicion that this might actually be enjoyable even though it has The Rock.
