‘Invictus’ trailer exclusive on Apple
In Contention —
... Apple has exclusively debuted the first trailer for Clint Eastwood’s “Invictus,” and when you get around the initial akward shock of Morgan Freeman’s accent, work around the oddly structured but still somehow streamlined nature of the trailer, read the writing on the wall, etc., I think it becomes clear pretty quick what we all, rightly or wrongly, have assumed sight-unseen since day one: this looks like a bona fide Oscar contender. ...

Clint Eastwood’s ‘Invictus’ trailer: A tall, cool glass of real-life inspiration
PopWatch —
... is a movie soaked in the milk of human goodness. But that’s just what he’s done with Invictus , his new movie based on the true story about how Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) recruited the captain of the South African rugby team (Matt Damon) to integrate the team and unite the country. And judging by the lump I got in my throat watching the trailer, maybe the filmmaker has even mastered the art of good schmaltz. This thing plays like a challenge to even the crustiest cynics. Check it out at Apple. See what I’m saying? From the moment Morgan Freeman says, “I am the captain ...

Trailer: Damon and Freeman in Eastwood's 'Invictus'

... gets it's title is kind of haunting, and Damon looks and sounds the part (is he wearing a prosthetic nose?). On the other hand, Freeman's accent seems to fade in and out (as does Damon's towards the end), and from the "From Director Clint Eastwood" title card on, the music kills the drama and waters down the dialogue (especially Damon's last line). For more evidence of how music can drive a trailer's potential into the ground, see Pete Jackson 's trailer for " The Lovely Bones ." [ Apple] - Andrew Hart

Cinematical —
... is one of the last big likely contenders of the awards season, though it is as of yet unseen (unless those very few who have seen it are very good at being very quiet). Damon plays real-life rugby captain Francois Pienaar, whose team saw the support of Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) as a rallying point around which they might lift the spirits of South Africa in the wake of apartheid. It's political! It's underdog! It's opening in December! It's Oscar bait for certain, and Apple has the exclusive trailer. ...

Clint Eastwood’s Invictus Trailer Rises to Power
Film School Rejects —
... I’m sure the film will be a rousing success, as Eastwood is no slouch. As well, he’s packed his film full of great actors (Freeman and Damon) playing characters of another nationalities. So if they stick the accents, their in for some Oscar love. It’s the awards season equivalent of shooting fish in a barrel. And it all starts with a trailer, which can be seen below courtesy of Apple (who also has it in HD). ...

... (Latin for unconquered) . Just look at this pedigree: Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela, Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar, the captain of South Africa’s rugby team, in a true story of Mandela joining forces with Pienaar to help unite South Africa. Yup, I smell Oscar. The trailer doesn’t really do much for me but I must admit that the star power is intoxicating. Invictus hits theatres December 11th. An HD version of the trailer is available at Apple .

TRAILER FOR CLINT EASTWOOD’S RUGBY MOVIE
FilmDrunk: Movie news you can make fun of —
... Hot damn, I don’t know about you guys, but I’m already inspired as sh-t. Maybe it’s because I played college and men’s club rugby (you should’ve seen me, why, I bet I could kick a ball over those mountains), but actually it’s probably because of all the African choir music a la Paul Simon’s Graceland. You could play that music over a prison-rape scene and it’d feel life affirming.

Clint Eastwood’s Invictus Trailer Starring Matt Damon
Film Junk —
... while Matt Damon plays South African team captain Francois Pienaar. Clint Eastwood’s films always seem to walk a thin line between real drama and cheesy sentimentality, and this one looks like it could go either way. However, the uplifting nature of the story is appealing, and really, who can resist a good underdog sports movie? I’m sure Matt Damon will be a big draw as well. Invictus hits theatres on December 11th; check out the trailer after the jump or watch it in HD over at Apple.com . Give us your thoughts in the comments below.

Apple debuts what Warner Brothers is hoping is 2009’s Best Picture.
At the age of 79, there’s no rest for Clint Eastwood. He cranked out two pictures in 2006, another two in 2008, and now with Invictus (formerly titled The Human Factor), he has film that is likely to get Oscar consideration. Morgan Freeman stars as Nelson Mandela and Matt Damon (who can also be seen in the trailer for Paul Greengrass’ Green Zone) as rugby player Francois Pienaar. Hard to judge a film on the trailer alone, but considering that the Academy ...

Cinema Blend News —
Trailer: Morgan Freeman And Matt Damon In Invictus One of the biggest unknowns of the fall movie season, not to mention the Oscars, has finally shown its face. The trailer for Clint Eastwood's Invictus hit the web at Apple.com (also embedded below), and offers our first look at Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon playing South Africans, Damon as the captain of the national rugby team, and Freeman as the role he was pretty much born to play: Nelson Mandela. The story, set immediately after the end of apartheid and at the beginning of Mandela's presidency, seems to be a classic ...

[image] The trailer for Clint Eastwood's Oscar-baiting picture Invictus has debuted over at Apple. ( You can check it out here .) It pushes all the buttons an important movie ought to push and proves that Hollywood magic is still a living, breathing dark art. However, I can't help but feel a little played. I know the movie is based on a book and that book is based on true events, but I watch this trailer and I flash on the following (imagined) scene: Screenwriter enters producers office with a Mandela biopic. Producer (with big cigar, natch) says, "No dice. Story's too ...

Matt Damon Trailer Double-Bill: ‘Green Zone’ & ‘Invictus’
Screen Rant —
... Unfortunately, the first Invictus trailer isn’t available to embed so for now you’ll have to head over to Apple.com to view it (we’ll have it for you here ASAP). But I highly recommend you watch it over at Apple as, like the Green Zone trailer above, it looks pretty damn great. If you can get past the jarring accent being put on by Freeman as Mandela, as well as the odd structure of the trailer itself, I think this is a shoe-in for at least a couple of acting Oscars, if not some noms for the film itself. ...
Two Matt Damon trailers in one day
Screener —
... The first trailer is for Invictus, which releases on December 11. It's a feel-good, based-on-a-true-story kind of tale that appeals to Oscar voters. Damon plays a rugby captain who is enlisted by South African President Nelson Mandela to win the 1995 World Cup. Mandela hopes the economic and racial divisions within the country can be mediated by national pride. The trailer has some heartbreaking looks at the Johannesburg slums, last seen in District 9 (albeit in a sci-fi context). ...

... Our first look comes via this new trailer, which shows us Invictus has a winning combination of biopic and underdog sports drama. The only thing that would make it even more Academy-friendly would be something Holocaust-related. Yet apartheid should be enough of a substitute given the film’s other worthy elements. ...
