Review of Powder Blue

Powder Blue (2009)
7/10
Good but flawed movie
22 August 2009
Just finished watching this movie noticed on clearance at our local Blockbuster. I noticed some big names like Forrest Whitaker, Ray Liotta, Kris Kristofferson. Put it in and was very moved by the acting of Liotta and Whitaker and the fine actor who played the loner mortician, can not remember his name. Fine supporting turns by Patrick Swayze and Lisa Kudrow. The setting for the movie was bleak and this added to the feel of the movie. The only disappointment I had with this movie was the stripper role played by Jessica Biel, she has no depth to her acting and her line reading was very leaden. I noticed some other comments talking about her nude scenes well she was a stripper in the movie nuff said. I wish though some good director would put Ray Liotta in more prominent films as he is the best thing in this movie and if Mickey Rourke can have a big comeback why cannot Ray Liotta who always steals the show with his acting.
