I mean, is how often is that a good sign? Another recent example that comes to mind is Triple Frontier which kicked around forever downgrading in talent/directors before falling in Chandor's lap.

I'm glad this is coming to HBOMax because this seems like low/mid-tier Denzel (Fallen, Out of Time, Bone Collector, etc.) that exist for no other reason than to be re-run on TNT and fill a January release date and so cutting out the theatrical run seems like getting cutting out the middleman.

From the trailer, Malek seems woefully miscast and as you noted Jared Leto seems to be doing what he always does.

I'm looking forward to it just have something new to watch but sounds like it lives up to the promise of lack of promise exhibited in the trailer
