If you'd like to be surprised, I don't recommend you to watch the following trailer, because it spoils the first 90% of the movie, so the only "surprise" you'll get is whether or not the protagonist will defeat the villain. And I'm pretty sure that won't be a surprise. I'd say you should stop at the 1:00 mark, that will give you enough information.
