Pass the Popcorn: State of Play

Russel Crowe, Ben Affleck, Rachel McAdams, Helen Mirren, and Jason Bateman all signed on to make what they probably thought would be the next "All of the President's Men." What they ended up making was an expensive two-hour episode of Law and Order. State of Play follows a team of investigative reporters as they try to solve the murder of a congressman's mistress. And of course, the plot thickens from there. It was good enough to rent but a let down considering the cast. If you've already seen everything on your DVR, give it a try.
