The Gingerbread Man [1998]

starring: Kenneth Branagh, Embeth Davidtz, Robert Downey Jr., Daryl Hannah, Tom Berenger
directed by: Robert Altman

Release Date October 11, 1999
I agree that the talented cast do seem to be wasted in this film but I feel that having the caliber of people such as Robert Duvall, even in a minor role, certainly added weight to the overall project. The plot kept my attention, although there are some events which seem a little unlikely, all in the name of artistic licence. And the majority of it seems to have been filmed at night, in the rain, which I find difficult to watch but did help with the tension needed. Overall, it is an ok film -
it isn't suspenseful or frightening but worth watching all the same.
