Nobody wants George Clooney's The Boys in the Boat (Amazon/MGM, 12.25) to turn out well more than myself. Clooney is a genuinely decent and likable fellow and we all believe in the adage about good things happening to good people. Lamentably, of the eight films he's directed over the last 22 years ony one -- Good Night, and Good Luck -- was an A-plus submission. I don't what the bpockage might be but Clooney somehow fumbled the other seven -- Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Leatherheads, The Ides of March, The Monuments Men, Suburbicon, The Midnight Sky and The Tender Bar.
