Man Down (2016, Montiel) S: LaBeouf, Courtney, Oldman, Mara



<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7KWbLummuMI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

When U.S. Marine Gabriel Drummer (Shia LaBeouf) returns home from his tour in Afghanistan, he finds that the place he once called home is no better than the battlefields he fought on overseas. Accompanied by his best friend Devin Roberts (Jai Courtney), a hardnosed marine whose natural instinct is to shoot first and ask questions later, he searches desperately for the whereabouts of his estranged son, Jonathan (Charlie Shotwell) and wife, Natalie (Kate Mara). In their search, the two intercept Charles (Clifton Collins Jr.), a man carrying vital information about the whereabouts of Gabriel's family. As we revisit the past, we are guided in unraveling the puzzle of Gabriel's experience and what will eventually lead us to finding his family. The psychological suspense thriller MAN DOWN also stars Gary Oldman.

I saw this listed at my local (suburban mall) theater for Friday. I had never heard of it (and that's unusual for me) and had to look it up on IMDB. I just can't imagine this pulling any kind of audience.

The TV ads for this just look bad.

The last time I sat down and unloaded a LaBeouf, it was pretty watery.

So did this ever come out? First time I can recall seeing so many ads for a movie and seeing zero box office report back on it.

I love A Guide to Recognising Your Saints. But everything Dito Montiel has made since then has been mixture of cat piss and horse shit.

I can't recall seeing a single ad. I guess they specifically targeted shows I don't watch.
