THIS AIN'T NO BANK ROBBERY!!!

The Inside Man is a movie coming out next Friday. It's directed by Spike Lee but there's very little about it that makes me think "Spike Lee" (although I honestly haven't seen more than a few clips from some of his movies). It stars Denzel Washington and the only thing I gleaned from the commercials was that it was another Denzel-style thriller so I have no real interest in seeing it.

The important thing here is the last shot you're shown in these TV spots. It is of Denzel in front of the doors of a bank shouting, "THIS AIN'T NO BANK ROBBERY!"

I certainly can't be the only one who finds this funny? The line itself is funny in what a standard Denzel Washington thriller line it is (sort of the same feeling I got when I saw the preview for I, Robot where Will Smith said "Aw, hellll no!"), but he's also screaming it at a door. Okay, so maybe there's someone on the other side of that door (in fact if you download the trailer that pretty much gets answered so it's almost better if you don't) but as far as I'm concerned based on the information the commercial is giving me, Denzel is just screaming futilely at a door. No one is listening, Denzel! NO ONE!

I saw a post on IMDB where someone guessed the plot twist was that Denzel is a schizophrenic and one side of him is robbing the bank and the other is trying to stop him. That works for me!
