Broken City Review. Dripping With Holes

Broken City Review  By: MattInRC The complex and confusing Broken City fills a basic January gap - just don't think too hard about it. January is a tough month to get your film released. With Oscars on the horizon, theaters are crowded with people checking out nominees, even if some have no right being there. Usually it's for a good reason: most of these films are stuck at the corner of Best Intentions and Poor Execution, with only a few surviving in people's minds long enough before the summer season sweeps all of them under the rug.

The Kennedys To Air On DirectTV?

It will star Greg Kinnear, Katie Holmes, Barry Pepper and Tom Wilkinson among others. The miniseries was directed by Jon Cassar and was to be shown on History Television in Canada and on History in the U.S. in 2011. In January 2011 it was announced that the mini-series would not be shown on the American History channel and that a new American broadcaster is being sought. DirectTV has emerged as a potential savior for The Kennedys, the controversial miniseries that was dropped by the History channel. “We are considering the possibility but no decision has been made,” a DirectTV rep tells THR amid an online report that the network was in talks with Kennedys producers Muse Entertainment and Asylum Entertainment. If a deal happens, the satellite service would air the 8-part mini-series on its Channel 101, solidifying its status as something of
