Even the uber liberal Slate is calling this DePalma/Cuban piece de resistance a stinker.
I know there are some on FR who believe that there is no such thing as bad publicity, but to them I say, the idle left will never learn.

De Palma’s a hack. Always has been.

Martin, maybe you should do a Pittsburgh ping, after all the person who financed this dung, was Mark Cuban, born and bred in Mt. Lebanon.

They MIGHT learn if people stay away in droves. Seems that all these anti-war propagandists listen to is the almighty dollar.

Wow! Never knew that. Mt. Lebanon is a nice upscale town. One of the few bright spots in the Pittsburgh area.

Good critics put Art above politics.

"Redacted" is biting the big one at the box office, as have the other anti-war propoganda films from Hollywood.
I want to see these bastards in a bread line. Don't spend your money on Hollywood.
Film is supposedly Sean Penn's area of competence. Penn made "All The King's Men" and "Shanghei Surprise". How dare he criticize anyone about anything.
Penn is also a racist. Had Marina del Ray flooded, do you think he'd be armed with a shotgun and wearing body armor like he was in NOLA?
And Tim Robbins, you're an ass too, but I liked Howard The Duck. The acting was so bad, it was good.

De Palma’s made exactly one good movie, THE UNTOUCHABLES. And that’s more attributable to screenwriter David Mamet and producer Art Linson.

IMHO, Cuban is the guy you go after on this one. He paid for it. Boycott the Mavs and HDNet.

Cuban made a fortune in the 90’s selling an internet deal to Yahoo for a few billion. He is acts like an idiot at times in regard to the Dallas Mavericks of which he is majority owner but no mistake he is not a fool....very good businessman. That being said, he lives in another world and probably screwed the pooch on this venture. Personally, I think he is a pain in the a$$, but that may be jealousy talking..
