What to Watch: Poolman

What to Watch: Poolman-Chris Pine is proud of his directorial debut to what it's like to grow up in Hollywood, but concedes the mystery comedy film might not be for everyone. Pine said a lot of people pushed back on some of the more specific jokes and references.
In Chris Pine's feature directorial debut, Poolman tells the story of Darren Barrenman (Pine), a native Angeleno who spends his days looking after the pool of the Tahitian Tiki apartment block and fighting to make his hometown a better place to live. When he is tasked by a femme fatale to uncover the truth behind a shady business deal, Darren enlists the help of friends to take on a corrupt politician and a greedy land developer. His investigation reveals a hidden truth about his beloved city and himself. The film also stars Annette Bening, Danny DeVito, Jennifer Jason Leigh, DeWanda Wise, Stephen Tobolowsky, John Ortiz and Ray Wise.
