The Runaways (2010)

Stewart, Fanning and Michael Shannon who plays "Kim" are very good. Wide releasing the film, setting it up to flop- what were they thinking? Although the film fizzles out in an attempt to end on a non-conventional, (still ends up being a) conventional note, everything that comes before it holds attention. The movie feels as if it was tinkered with (maybe edited with studio persistence or altered becuase of Stewart's involvement, in the midsts of the Twilight series) and would have benefited opening with a smaller release. A release where word of mouth would have saved it from completely disappearing into the abyss.
