Althought the front image is great, I think the balance of the front is off. I'ts too heavy on the right. Adding a tagline on the left side could balance it.

Tagline on the front is too big, and positioned to high.

Too many gabs in the synopsis on the back.

I think you should come up with the whole back layout before getting stuck on just the synopsis....

Dont like the caps on the synopsis, and like JR says, its too gappy. tried a gradient on it, like on the TT, so the darker grey would show up better on the white and light grey on the darker blue. prefer the claw where you have it now

m8 try to get your syp into a single box shape up top instead of the L shape you now have, Eurostile may be a better font, or maybe a serpentine, and keep working those gaps, you may need to alter the syp abit, but what the hell, better than gaps. Love where you've placed the claw.

You need to use a font that is not Capitalized for synopsis.
i would place the synopsis, next to the claw, use the pen tool to make a box that follows the tearing on the left and keep it straight on the right
keep it minimal 5 mm from the edge .

then you'll have room on top for a nice critic quote or tagline.
