Despite the genius of casting Tommy Lee Jones as famed American military icon Douglas MacArthur in a small supporting role, Emperor is a disappointing historical drama that wastes too much time on a useless love story instead of the more interesting and thoughtful issues at hand.
This week at the video store we check out Flight, Here Comes the Boom, Celeste and Jesse Forever, Alex Cross, Les Infideles, The Inbetweeners Movie, and L'affaire Dumont.
Every now and then a movie comes along that is so misconceived on every conceivable level that it becomes ludicrously entertaining in the ways that the filmmakers never intended. Alex Cross is one of those very special disasters.
