COLLATERAL BEAUTY (Theatrical Release USA 2016)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.6|5.0 Starsìììì 

Collateral Beauty—the real beauty in this movie cannot be discovered until the end of the film—has Will Smith, Edward Norton, and Helen Mirren working toward revealing the beauty that lies inherent in all life situations. Michael Pena shines in this movie. The movie runs as an easily missed, high quality piece of entertainment.
