Righteous Kill

De Niro! Pacino! Dennehy! Er, 50 Cent?

Hmm. Should we be excited by this...or are The Method Men merely coasting it these days?

Killer one-sheet, though...




Trailers...

I'll see it, because it has two of my favorite actors. However, it is being directed by Jon Avnet(?) who made the garbage 88 Minutes. The script was written by the same guy who wrote Inside Man though, so maybe there is still hope. I really hope it turns out alright.

It could go either way. From the trailer, it seems the boys - especially De Niro - are on form, so we'll see.

As for 88 Minutes, that was supposed to be a total disaster, wasn't it? Did it even get a theatrical release? Did you see it?

Another one-sheet...

Oh god, this looks awful. The more I hear about it, the worse it looks...

These two men have become caricatures of themselves... It's a shame how their careers disintegrated. I wouldn't waste my money on this....

Well, the director doesn't carry much promise either. 88 Minutes never even opened over here...

Let's watch...about half the movie...

Thanks for sharing those clips, Man. It's nice to have my assumptions validated; what a fetid turd of a flick. This thing would go DTV were it not for those two has-beens.

Wow, Man. You weren't kidding when you said half the film is online.

New Redband with some naughty language...

If the film works at all, it works despite a whole lot of mistakes and missteps on the part of the screenwriter and the director. The actors save the day, and isn't that a fact that lets us all sleep easier at night?
