Oscar-winner Russell Crowe’s latest attempt to reclaim his place as one of Tinseltown’s most bankable stars lands him front and center in the star-studded thriller, State of Play. Directed by Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland), and further buoyed by the universal appeal of Ben Affleck and the depth of Rachel McAdams, State of Play has all of the elements necessary to make it one of spring’s most anticipated films. While it won’t break any box-office records, it will remind the public that Crowe is an immeasurable talent. –dewayne rogers
