...ROCK (June 7). Connery, visible this time and wearing his full toupee, is a hermit con who helps hip-geeky Nicolas Cage storm Alcatraz to prevent some bad guys from doing really bad things. The trailer makes it look like another exercise in chatty machismo from the Simpson-Bruckheimer team (Crimson Tide...

ERASER (June 21). All action, no talk, the way a Schwarzenegger trailer should be. In this reverse twist on Total Recall--he wipes out your real past instead of remembering a fake one--Arnie saves nice people and blows stuff up. Worth seeing, if only to find out if Hollywood has finally decided to make Vanessa Williams a movie star...

MULTIPLICITY (July 12). Life is too much for one man (husband-father-careerist Michael Keaton).

...HARD (May 24). Leslie Nielsen in another spoof--not by the brothers Zucker, but you wouldn't guess that from the trailer.

No way to tell if the humor is sustained, since any farce will have enough decent gags to stock a trailer...

...summer's canniest investment. With loose-dentured diction and bodice-ripping devotion, he leeches onto mild-mannered Matthew Broderick. Only a genius of goonery, an Ace Caricatura like Carrey, could play an egregious pest and make him appealing--at least for the 2 min. 25 sec. of the trailer...
