I couldn’t tell you how internet porn came to be, but thanks to this movie I think that is all about to change. Middle Men, starring Luke Wilson, Giovanni Ribisi, James Cann and is directed by George Gallo (Midnight Run) is a Paramount Vantage picture that takes us into the birth of using credit cards online to purchase pornography. Check out the new and old trailers after the jump.
The movie made its way around film festivals and was picked up by Paramount after being seen at the Santa Barbra Film Festival. I really liked this trailer and am looking forward to seeing where this movie goes and how the whole underworld of porn and thug life mashes up against an entrepreneur, Christopher Malick, who brilliantly takes advantage of an amazing opportunity. Check out the synopsis and trailer below.
p.s. I also think the tag line to the movie is AMAZING and perfect for this type of movie. (Business is like sex…getting in is easy, pulling out is hard.)
The official plot synopsis:
Jack Harris has a faithful and loving wife, two beautiful children, and a successful career fixing problem companies. When an associate calls him about an opportunity to help turn around a business that has fallen into trouble, he decides to take the job. Little does he know, it is a decision that will change his life in ways he never expected. Jack meets with Wayne Beering and Buck Dolby, two genius but troubled men who have invented a way to sell adult entertainment over the Internet. The plan was brilliant but the execution wasn’t — they were making money hand-over-fist and losing it just as fast. Seeing the potential, Jack agrees to partner with Buck and Wayne, devising a way to bill the entertainment through a third party, taking the guilt out of the ultimate guilty pleasure. Before he knows it, he finds himself caught between the Russian mob, a 23- year-old porn star, the FBI, and losing his family in the process of becoming rich. Witness a story so outrageous, you won’t believe it’s true. A story that proves business is a lot like sex…getting in is easy, pulling out is hard.
