Justin's movie debut also thrown back

TMZ REPORTS

Justin Timberlake's feature film debut has sadly become his straight-to-video debut.

Despite co-starring with Oscar winners Kevin Spacey and Morgan Freeman, it looks like Justin's crime drama "Edison Force" isn't up to par. It's being released to video stores on Tuesday, July 18.

The movie, filmed in 2004, hit the film festival circuit last year, but early reviews were not kind. Variety said "The movie is a parade of cliches," and the Hollywood Reporter called it "a star-studded dud of a B-picture."

I would have thought the cast alone could get the movie over.

I heard about this. That's pretty bad....I guess Justin won't be crowing too much about this film "career", huh?

Well I for one dont believe that "musicians" should try acting.

Look at Under The Cherry Moon.

He sure let his music career slide for awhile for this supposed "acting" foray...hopefully the other do some SOMETHING at the box office.
I'll leave it alone babe...just be me

Let's not forget he did another movie with LL Cool J I believe during his off time so there's hope we may see the other one in theaters...

That's the same. LL also plays in Edison.
