Movie Haiku:Wonderful premise poorly executed. Even tho he died in 2008, Don Lafontaine--the man who made the words "In a world..." resonate in a gazillion movie trailers--remains the king of Voice Overs. Film is about the guys competing to replace him & whether they will allow a woman in their sandbox. Such a great idea, but Bell ruins it with too many 2D characters in half-baked subplots. Not yet seen by Rich.
