Review of The Devil's Tomb (2009) by Girl-Melody L — 15 Oct 2009

A moment of silence for the career of Cuba Gooding Jr.

So sad.

So promising in Boyz n the Hood. So great in Jerry Maguire. Such energy at the Oscars. Held his own next to DeNiro, Hoffman, Nicholson, Hopkins. And now he's not even the best part of a less-than-B staight-to-DVD horror/action picture. The second saddest thing about Devil's Tomb is that the fallen angel storyline is actually a decent idea. Of course the third worst is seeing Ron Perlman and Henry Rollins ruin their respective badass cred, but neither they, nor even the Nephilim, have fallen as far as Cuba Gooding. It'd be funny if it wasn't so awful, which is of course the exact opposite of Devil's Tomb.
