Promised Land
This movie received a positive review from my local paper when it first came out and hoped it would provide an interesting view of a salesman of sorts who had a change of heart on fracking. Turned out to be heavy-handed with the idea of an environmentalist craftily coming in to muckrake apparently downright shocking to someone previously portrayed as blithely realizing the right price to pay off local pols. Apparently got worse, but shut it off.
