Nice! I like the new, subdued colors much better!!

It could just be the preview, but in some places, the new color looks a little too dark... maybe lighten it just a bit (like 10%)?

The image of Brody on the back is really bad. I know its supposed to represent the sadness of the story, but it just looks bad. Perhaps use a photo of the cast..

That front in particular is fantastic. The back as well is pretty special, but I have a couple of minor details --

The italic text in the synopsis doesn't quite look right to me... it gives off a little bit of an action movie feel when the rest of the cover is excellently so subdued.

And then it looks like there are two bursts of turquoise sneaking in, one on the left next to his arm and one right above the synopsis. I'm usually a fan of the color, but it seems to really be jumping out. Maybe bring more of that into the cover, or (more likely) remove it?

And the back image... in the context of the movie, it's devastating and part of a great performance, but I do get a little bit of that feeling that somehow it looks humorous on the cover. It's such an extreme element. I can understand both sides of you liking what it does to convey the emotion and of people being 'uncomfortable' with it. You've got a great cover on your hands regardless of whether you decide to keep it or not. :)
