I will share trailer, posters, cast and synopsis about the movie. Is it illegal? Can I monetize with google adsense ?
 
As long as u don't use any copyrighted material, it's 100% legal
 
But movie posters could it be a problem? (copyright or google adsense)
 
It won't be a problem as long as everything is user generated content. If you want to upload everything (either manually or through automation), then you're responsible for copyrights and other issues.
 
Adsense wont approve because you are not even curating the content but more like auto blogging
 
I will create all the content myself. But i don't think google adsense will approve it though.

If you are creating all content on your own, it will become more or less like entrainment blog. I dont see why they wont approve

movie posters and pictures from movies could be problem for adsense, i think.

It's Legal unless you publish Pirated Movies or Links. You can publish anything (trailer, posters, cast, and synopsis about the movie) without any issues because you are promoting the movie (it's their benefit).
 
Why illegal ? Only thing you cannot disclose is what happens in the end in the movie as it could affect its business.
 
I have a similar site :( but couldn't get monetized with adsence though it is a data-driven site. I am using Propellerads and sometimes driving traffic via Safelink.

I was hoping you'd explain this strat
Well, Search Safelink Plugin you will get your answer :) I just modified it for my use .. and instead of adsence I am using propeller.
 
Unfortunately, movie posters are copyrighted, even for movie reviews. Google adsense won't enable monetization.
 
Using movie posters, actors pictures and in some cases the movie title itself might be infringements of copyrighted materials or trademarks. You are sailing into an ocean of trouble my friend, be careful.
