I’m here to not tell you too much about this movie.

January is, as a rule, a crap month for movies. The Christmas/New Year’s window is boffo, as Variety used to say when it knew what it was, and distributors usually release 1 or 2 movies in January that they think can do some business… 1 of them filling the relatively new Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday slot.
