As expected from a Jerry Bruckheimer product, the trailer is full of action set-pieces and plastic-looking CGI while more than enough voice over explains EVERYTHING. The sad part is that the voice over is from a scene within the movie, so at one point in the film, we know we're gonna encounter yet another lame exposition scene.
It looks polished and yellow, just like the game while Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Arterton (playing the female lead) share a very disturbing British accent that pulls you right out of the scenery. Kinda reminded me of Orlando Bloom and his leading-man failure "kingdom of heaven".
I also found the lukewarm jokes between the leads annoying.
Anyway, give it a shot and write your feelings about it.

Eventually movies based on games will be good but it hasn't happened yet.

As for the Trailer, it looks like Bruckheimer was sitting around and said "I know let's make Pirates of the Caribbean, but in a dessert, find me what properties can fit that criteria."

Actually, Wolvie, I might be interested in this one since I did play all the video games on the Gamecube & PS2. Yeah, I'm sure it will be cornball, so I'll just measure this one up to a guilty pleasure. but yeah, I'm slightly interested in seeing this one.
Guess you can never judge a book by its cover.

Probably not - Ultraviolet had all those cool gadgets.
