That goofy poster….
He’s SMILING in the poster….yet, he’s using his whip, which suggests he’s probably in some trouble (if he had to resort to his whip).
I get it, the SMILE in the poster (as goofy, out of place and incongruent as it is)…is probably supposed to suggest that this movie is a rollicking good time. However, it takes the DANGER out of the imagery and instead makes it look like a kids movie.
