Review of State of Play (2009) by Richard Corliss for Time — 21 Oct 2017
The film's director, Kevin Macdonald, who did "The Last King of Scotland," is not a flair fellow. The chase scenes interpolated into this version have no special oomph; the encounters no residual kick.
Paging Ridley Scott? Oh, sorry, too late. So there it is: another film that can't compete with a TV show.
