Cannes Croisette: Joel Schumacher’s Twelve

Date:

Lymelife’s Rory Culkin and Emma Roberts re-team in this ensemble film which includes none other than 50 Cent. If Joel Schumacher’s Twelve tableau (featured below tells us anything it is, that – Schumacher’s last good picture was a long long time ago. Does anyone out there (including producers) think he has made something worth watching since Flatliners? This tells the story of a young drug dealer who watches as his high-rolling life is dismantled in the wake of his cousin’s murder, which sees his best friend arrested for the crime.
