Danny Glover ruined it for me

Rating: 1/10 (29 October 2010)

Actor Danny Glover ruins this piece of cinematic sci-fi for me. Imagine as a theatre-goer having to suspend belief and connect with a story all the while trying to deal with Glover's nutty-as-a-fruitcake politics and personal persona informing his character as, of all things, President of the United States. It was impossible for me. Glover is movie enjoyment poison for me. There is no nuance, no depth, no feeling to the viewer that he even connects to the character he is playing. I always feel as if Glover is playing his Lethal Weapon character in every film he makes. Is he too ashamed (or connected to friends in the business) that he won't return for a few acting lessons?
