Oh, so this was that film with Justin that turned out to be horrible and went direct to video, I thought it was just called "Edison", o well, might see it to see how bad it is.

Apparently, no one is above DTV, either.

If it wen't for Justin, it would have been released in theaters I think

Looks like a knock-off of S.W.A.T.

I loved S.W.A.T., so this maybe worth a look see.

Ironically, LL Cool J was in SWAT.  So instead of Sam Jackson, we get Morgan Freeman, and instead of Colin Farrel we get Justin Timberlake.  Then Kevin Spacey was in The Negotiator which was another SWAT-type movie.

Whatever happened to David Morse?  He's great in these kind of roles.

For some views on this film, check out its listing on IMDb under just Edison.  Hint..they're not good.  JT acting apparently stunk, with a pre-pubescent sounding voice.

I think Kevin Spacey was sentenced to do this movie as penance for raiding Steven Seagal's wardrobe.

Edison Force definitely must be up there in the 'worst film titles of all time' category.

Wow totalllllly surprised by this I thought the cast was good enough to allow a theatrical release but apparently not! Jeez Louise...

Actually it's not that bad.
The script and the direction is what hurt the film the most.
The actors did the best they could with what they had to work with.
It's not a great film, but it's far from the worst film ever made.

And I'm sure all the teenage girls will be thrilled to watch their heartthrob on screen.

Yeah, as opposed to 90% of the DVD covers on the market right now.

I've seen it and it's AWFUL. Justin's acting is hardly the only fault with the movie but it sure doesn't help.

What a terrible cover!!! Timberlake just looks wrong next to actors, and poor LL Cool J looks like a hunchback with an overgrown head.  I feel very bad for Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey because they are great actors, and they should never be seen in direct to video c**p. I must say that the funny part is that there was some buzz around this film, and then nothing about it for a while, and now here it is. I wonder if this collapsed because of the director or the script, because if it was the script then it shouldn't have been green lighted and that's the studio's fault.

I know it's actually 2.35

Sony isn't going to change it's aspect ratio are they?

I would not be surprised, Lions Gate has been doing that with alomst every release lately, "Lord of War", "Saw II" and "Waiting..." have all been changed from their original aspect ratios of either 2.35:1 or 1.85:1 to 1.78:1. So I would not be surprised if Sony does it.

This movie was scheduled for theatrical release as a political drama named "Edison". They even debuted the trailer on the TV show Extra. Now we are suppose to believe it's a "thriller" called "Edison Force".....THUMP!.....did you hear that? That's the sound of me laughing so hard I fell out of my chair.

No offense, but this movie must be pretty awful to go straight to video with two of the greatest actors of all time together for the first time. Bad decision in casting two legends with two rap/pop stars.

Definitely give it a shot anyway. Anything with Spacey and Freeman's worth a viewing. Even if it's as bad as they say.

This is already out in Sweden...with a better cover anc only called; Edison
