Movie Preview: Chris Pine co-writes, directs and stars (with Annette Bening and Danny DeVito) as “Poolman”

Posted on March 16, 2024 by Roger Moore

A slap happy farce from the former “Star Trek” star, playing a pool cleaner with private detective and Hollywood screenplay dreams.

DeWanda Wise, Jennifer Jason Leigh, John Ortiz and Ray Wise are also in the cast.

Frenetic trailer, a couple of laughs in it. This got panned, apparently at some film festivals where it played. But maybe they recut it. In any event, Vertical, a court-of-last-resort distributor has it.
