Looks pretty interesting, but it might take some getting used to seeing Ben Affleck playing George Reeves.

I just watched it. Ben Affleck was outstanding. I loved the way they presented the possible scenarios of Reeves’s death. This was a really solid movie all the way around – acting, script, cinematography, etc…

MESA! :thud:
I thought Affleck was great, I also liked how they showed how he could have died...but the movie just left me with an "eh" sort of feeling. Since I get to the theaters about twice a year, I was not happy when I wasted one of my trips on that movie.
