6 screenwriters? and it still doesn't sound or look as something interesting, let alone special, the best part is when they add 'based on the true story', which could have just as well been left out, as the final product is mostly something much different from the original source, less in basic/stripped content, more in its goals/purpose

guess halle berry is on her own in this one, we'll see what that might bring, the trailer does nothing to raise interest here
