Jerry Maguire: Jonathan Lipnicki looks back on his unforgettable role
http://www.ew.com/article/2016/12/13/je ... n-lipnicki
What projects do you have coming up?
I just had a movie that was released in theaters and now it’s on Amazon and iTunes called Loserville. I’m pretty happy with that one, I think it’s a really interesting role. I also have a movie coming out at the beginning of the year, called Altitude, with Denise Richards and Dolph Lundgren, and I also executive produced it. It’s like a female driven Die Hard. Right now, I wrote a script, I’m working on that. I have a few things where sometimes you do these movies and you don’t know where they are going to go. I have another movie that’s a summer comedy called Pitching Tents. Sometimes you go in there, you act, and you don’t see something for two years and then it pops up and you’re like, “Oh, hey.”

For what it is, i found this traiter enjoyable. It might not give us a fair glimpse of thé final production, but it's well éditéd and gives US a few good shots of dolph.

I don't know if it will offer anything new in terms of story or plot, but I will say that visually this movie looks surprisingly good going by that trailer.
The cinematography is nice and moody, and the CGI looks above average for a low budget DTV.

There have been a bunch of these cheap plane movies done for TV in recent years, and they all look like soap operas with bland cinematography and cheap CGI. This one at least has some style.

I was just going to ask the same. Is there a Variety review that just waits to get posted? :lol:
Seriouslly, I fear that something similar is awaiting Black Water. Being re-titled in UK as "Imprisoned" or something like that.
