LIFE ON THE LINE (2016) Starring John Travolta, Kate Bosworth, Devon Sawa, Julie Benz, and Sharon Stone PLOT: The film follows a crew of high-wire workers fixing the electric grid but eventually they are hit by a deadly storm and need to survive. (Actually it's like 'Armageddon', but instead of an asteroid hitting the Earth they need to get the electricity back on!) Every movie cliche is in this movie. Every. Single. One. Parents killed in two separate accidents on the same night by John Travolta in the first five minutes? Yes! An evil electric company with a NASA control center? Yes! Sharon Stone as an abusive alcoholic mother? Yes! A needless subplot about a suicidal neighbor? Yes! A pregnant woman shot in the stomach? YES!!!

What can be said for this sad, sad attempt at filmmaking. Between Pacino's high heel shoe lifts, and the convoluted storyline, this film is a disaster. It just leaves you feeling depressed, two actors that have been in some truly great films, are now relegated to this kind of garbage.

Whoa boy is this movie awful. To paraphrase Jason re: Keanu Reeves, "if you're wondering if Keifer Sutherland has got the fuckin chops to be from England, he does not." It has to be seen to be believed.

I just saw this video of Chelsea Peretti on Late Night and seeing her hype and excitement for this movie really charmed me, especially since she was not in it and for a second really believed she was. https://youtu.be/WVTuvI5iPB0 I was thinking that this could be like the Fasts sub-series were it is an overall positive episode where the cast with Chels discuss what they loved. I have a feeling that they would totally be into it, especially with the Rock being in the mix. And it be such a treat to have Peretti back too! I haven't seen the movie at all, so don't want to condemn it nor say it's going to be good but I think this movie with this guest are basically perfect and ready to be done into an episode, especially given the crews taste in movie (mostly involving the Rock), what y'all think?
