Hollywoodland
This is not a sneak preview. This movie has already released.
Beginning with the mysterious death of George Reeves (Ben Affleck) in 1959, a fictitious private detective, Louis Simo (Adrien Brody), explores possible theories other than suicide. Alien loved the look of the fifties created in the movie and the inside look at television’s Superman. However, the film seems to drag on really slowly. As if there wasn’t enough material to work with here, this bio pic is padded with two alternate causes of death involving a fiancée (Robin Tunney) and a mistress (Diane Lane) as well as the Simo’s personal story and one of his concurrent cases. What’s slower than a speeding snail and duller than a pair of kiddie scissors… it’s Hollywoodland.
Alien gives it 2 “many stories in one” stars out of 4.
