Triple 9is in theaters now. Rating: 2.5 out of 5

Its fairly evident that using performance capture might have helped in that regard. Despite the silliness of the concept and visuals, its easy to adjust as the film goes along. If it isnt obvious enough thatGods of Egyptis trying to be300, casting Butler drives that point home. In one of Sets battles with Horus, the latter even exclaims, This is madness! and as we all know from300,you never should say that to Gerard Butler....

Seven years later,The Birth of a Nationwas all the talk of Sundance and deservedly so. Nats time in the main house doesnt last long as hes sent out to pick cotton.
