Review: 'Promised Land' begins well but never quite catches hold

Matt Damon is the compelling center of the film he co-wrote, but this tale about a fight over fracking turns too gimmicky to finish satisfyingly.

"Promised Land" certainly sounds promising. It's got a strong cast and an intriguing premise that has the added bonus of real-world relevance. But, good intentions and good work aside, the film flounders before it reaches its conclusion.
