Freelancers

Freelancers played in limited release to poor reviews. • Lou Lumenick wrote in the New York Post, "...hokey... Forest Whitaker gives more than this crummy film deserves... Ineptly directed... 'Freelancers' is De Niro's second-worst film of 2012 after 'Red Lights.' God help us; he's got two more to go."   More Reviews Below...
