Delayed Reaction: The Bone Collector

The Pitch: I bet Denzel Washington could make a movie a hit literally laying in bed the whole time.

What Took Me So Long: It's one of those movies that I confused with about a dozen other movies so often that I lost track of it(i.e. It is not The Jacket, The Collector, or The Lovely Bones).

Why I Saw It: (Club 50) There's something fun about watching anything with Angelina Jolie before she was the Angelina we know now. She still has an air of having something to prove in this. She was still "Jon Voight's daughter" when this came out. It's surprising how charismatic even a quadriplegic Denzel Washington is.

Why I Wish I Hadn't: While it's what sets the movie apart from similar ones, Denzel's condition is a Harrison Burgeron-level (pardon the word choice) handicap on the whole thing. It's like they are ramping up the adversity for the sport of it.

Verdict (?): Weakly Don't Recommend
