Lemony Pledge

OK, The Pledge isn’t a lemon exactly. It is a moderately paced run of the mill indie film, though. Directed by Sean Penn and starring his then-wife Robin Wright Penn opposite Jack Nicholson with a smattering of other familiar faces to round it out it’s got all the oomph anyone could possibly ask for. Despite all that you can’t get around the fact that it’s achingly average in both plot and style.
