Kinetic Italian Trailer for Gerard Butler's 'Game'

You know you're probably not supposed to run a leaked trailer when...the version everybody's watching is in Italian and you got it from a Russian website. But the new trailer for the action flick Game has already been yanked from some other websites, so we thought we'd give you an opportunity to see it before we get our own cease and desist letter. On paper, the film is an action lover's dream: It stars Gerard Butler from 300 and it's written and directed by Neveldine and Taylor, better known as the Crank guys. Here's the setup: In the near future, human chess pieces are controlled by other players in a kind of real life massively multiplayer online roleplaying game, your basic MMORPG. The thing is, the players don't realize they're being controlled. And then Gerard Butler wakes up, and it's "tonight we dine in Hell" time. You can't get all of that out of the trailer, which is actually a pretty confusing couple of minutes, but it does give you a sense of how the gameplay will look on film, plus you're keenly aware that there will be tons of explosions. Game will be released on September 4th, and when we get a legit English language trailer, we'll give you a look at that, too.

Neveldine and Taylor are behind Jonah Hex, as well, which is already leaking some saucy buzz
