BRIAN VINER reviews September 5: Drama behind first ever live broadcast of a terror attack
Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt called December 7, 1941 'a date which will live in infamy'.
This time, director and co-writer Tim Fehlbaum looks at the shocking events of that day 53 years ago entirely from the perspective of the US television network ABC, whose team was in West Germany to deliver a purely sporting narrative yet found itself at the heart of the first terrorist outrage to be broadcast live across the world. A misjudged blend of romance, cookie cutter wisdom (‘hiding isn’t living!’), uninspired comedy, poorly edited martial arts, and jarringly graphic violence, the only thing to love is a rather sweet Goonies reunion between Quan and his buddy, Sean Astin. A lavish, big-screen adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s bestselling comic books, this spin-off sees our half man/half mutt police officer hero on a skimpily narrated mission to capture ‘the world’s most evilest cat’ (voiced by Pete Davidson) while bonding with a very cute kitten (Lucas Hopkins Calderon).
