LRF's strong start to Season 19 continued in Round 2. Here's The Roundup....
3. Police Story: Case Closed
This third entry was the best one yet. The action was bigger and better. The big flaw of the film was the almost complete lack of Chan.
2. Shouts from the Well
The film was too long and the casting was a bit iffy. But the visual style of the film with Fincher at the helm made the film a unique experience.
1. Box Office
Despite Shouts from the Well losing a chunk of money for the studio, LRF is off to a very strong start to its 19 season at the box office.
3. Metascores
While this round didn't feature any films that were complete turkeys, there was a sizable drop in the average Metascore from Round 1 to this second round. Round 1 had an average Metascore of 73, while Round 2 has an average of 59.
2. Rainbow Six
Honestly, I was a bit disappointed with Rainbow Six. It just felt small in scale compared to what it should have been. Not a terrible film, but a minor letdown for sure.
1. Awards-Worthy Films
The studio has done a pretty good job in recent years of trying to release some awards-friendly films earlier in the season. So far of the six films, only Kansas City looks to me like a contender.
