Formerly “Neighborhood Watch” but changing it’s title following the Trayvon Martin case, The Watch follows four suburban guys as they stumble across an alien invasion plot and they attempt to save their neighborhood and the world. Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Richard Ayoade star with The Lonely Island’s Akiva Schaffer directing. It looks pretty good, like a cross between The Burbs and Attack the Block but it seems like another solid but not really laugh out loud comedy, which seems to be the M/O of this summer. We’ll find out in July when The Watch comes out and you can check out the trailer below.
