When I think of Ryan Reynolds and Anna Kendrick starring in a comedy together, talking pets and decapitated heads wouldn't come to mind. But maybe that's why I work at GameZone and not on movies.
The Voices looks like a wonderful and surprising dark comedy from Marjane Satrapi. It stars Reynolds, Kendrick, Gemma Arterton and Jacki Weaver.
The synopsis for The Voices is:
The Voices is a genre-bending film which centers around Jerry, a lovable but disturbed factory worker who yearns for the attention of a woman in accounting. When their relationship takes a sudden turn, we follow Jerry’s perspective as his talking pets, a sinister cat and benevolent dog, lead him down a fantastical, murderous path.
So Reynolds is a psychopath who imagines that his pets tell him to go out and kill people, keeps the decapitated heads of his victims, and then imagines they talk to him and have him feel guilty. And then there's sweet Anna Kendrick, who we're praying doesn't meet her demise.
Oh, I forgot to mention, that's Ryan Reynolds voicing the dog and cat.
The Voices releases in select theaters and VOD on February 6, 2015.
