“Downsizing” Starring Matt Damon

“Downsizing” is the new, much-anticipated comedy from film director extraordinaire Alexander Payne (“Sideways” “The Descendents” “Election” “About Schmidt” ) and this release, featuring a top cast lead by Matt Damon, Christoph Waltz, and Kristen Wiig, is in the fine, darkly satirical tradition that Payne knows does so incredibly well.

The new movie trailer for this wildly imaginative comedy shows this film to be one of the most funny and comedically enticing new movies to come into theaters in quite a long whlle. This new movie behind the scenes of modern society offers a trenchant social commentary on a serious subject, overpopulation, that many new movies ignore.

This inventive new movie combines a satirical sci-fi style plot with real concerns about how modern humans will deal with an overpopulated planet. With great stars like Damon and Wiig turning in terrific comedy performances, the new movie trailer is spiking interest from film lovers who want to see this new movie behind the scenes and on the screen too.

The storyline of “Downsizing” (written by Payne and Jim Taylor) follows the adventures of a couple (Damon and Wiig) who become interested in a new scheme hatched by Norwegian scientists to shrink people down to five inches tall in order to save resources. The couple becomes intrigued with the idea when they realize that living in a “downsized” community will save them money, but the plans go awry when Wiig’s character backs out of the plan, leaving Damon to deal with life from a whole new (small) perspective, in a new community of tiny little people.

Fans of Damon, Wiig, Waltz and other hot comedy stars are sure to delight in the laughs of this socially relevant comedy, as this release offers plenty of satiriical wit along with great performances from a top-flight cast.
