What you may need to know

1. Robert Downey Jr takes a break from starring in megabudget franchise
pics to star in THE MOST GENERIC ‘QUALITY’ HOLLYWOOD MOVIE EVER.

2. 20 years ago, this might have starred Dennis Quaid and Gene Hackman.

3. It’s easy to forget that 10 years ago, RDJ was considered a uninsurable liability, a mercurial talent who had pretty much squandered his shot at stardom.

4. They forgot to add ‘From the director of Fred Claus (2007) and The Change-Up (2011)’.

5. Robert Duvall has had the crusty old bastard thing down pat for the last quarter century plus.

6. Billy-Bob Thornton POWER. How good is he in [telly’s] Fargo?

7. Broadsheet Prognosis: You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll look forward
to Avengers 2.

Release date: December

We’d be delighted if you could share the video with your readers under the thinly-veiled guise of promoting a quality Irish product….”

“Snapped this yesterday evening. Never spotted this happening ever before but the sun set at just the right angle for one Pigeon House smokestack to shade the other. Think it was about 6pm.”
