Freedomland (2006)

IMDB: Freedomland (2006)

Plot Outline: A black police detective must solve a strange case of a kidnapped boy and deal with a big racial protest.
===============================================

This film was, in a word, messy. Moore never gives any coherent semblence of a character, rather rocking back and forth from basic nut case to almost a loving mom.

The movie doesn't know whether it wants to be a suspense thriller about a woman whose son is carjacked, or a civil rights movie about the plight of those in 'blighted' neighborhoods.

It fails miserably at both.

Rating: 4
