Stone
Although I watched this movie while it was still considered Tuesday, I write my blog now and thus have my first post of June because it's past midnight lol. Anyway so the plot of the film comes down to this: Parole officer Jack Mabry (Robert De Niro) has only a few weeks left before retirement and wishes to finish out the cases he's been assigned. One such case is that of Gerald "Stone" Creeson (Edward Norton), a convicted arsonist who is up for parole. Jack is initially reluctant to indulge Stone in the coarse banter he wishes to pursue and feels little sympathy for the prisoner's pleads for an early release. Seeing little hope in convincing Jack himself, Stone arranges for his wife Lucetta (Milla Jovovich) to seduce the officer, but motives and intentions steadily blur amidst the passions and buried secrets of the corrupted players in this deadly game of deception.When this movie was first announced I had wanted to see it because I like Edward Norton's acting. I've seen him in The Illusionist, The Painted Veil, The Incredible Hulk and maybe other stuff I can't think of right now. I'm convinced that this guy knows how to act. Then again that's why he's in the acting business right? Anywho, the movie was pretty good if I do say so myself, but be warned, there's boobies and baby making to be seen(if you have young ones present that might not need to be watching such things yet...put them to sleep).
