Anything with Hollywood power couple Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton has always drawn attention, but people going to cinemas at the time didn't agree with your "classic" description.

Bosley Crowther, a New York Times film reviewer at the time of "The Comedians'" release, said the film was "conventional and obvious." Audiences agreed, and it was a flop at the box office.

Q: I just saw a listing for a movie called "Iron Mask," starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jackie Chan, that's apparently a year old. How have I never heard of this before?

Frankly, because it wasn't made for you.

Everything about this movie defies belief, from the outlandish hairpieces worn by stars Jackie Chan and Arnold Schwarzenegger to the fact that it's actually a sequel to one of the biggest hits of all time (in Russia).

This film, a Chinese-Russian co-production, is actually a sequel to the 2014 adventure "Forbidden Kingdom" (or "Forbidden Empire," depending on which country you're in), which featured neither Chan nor Schwarzenneger.
