Honestly, aside from Gwyneth Paltrow, the teaser for Mortdecai is ridiculously hilarious. Johnny Depp plays a rake and art dealer on the chase for a stolen piece of art. He must use his charm and his cutting wit to get the job done. At one point in the trailer, Mortdecai shoots some poor guy straight back to Jesus with a shotgun by accident. I laughed the whole time. Check it out!
