In our Greyhound review, we take a look at what shoud've been the ultimate dad adventure but feels like a glorified TV movie.

Greyhound looks the part, if the part was a cable movie event. A good number of major stars from the 1980s have transitioned to appearing in event-like TV series, such as Kevin Costner on the continuing drama
Yellowstone. Tom Hanks is still too big of a star to make that shift, but
Greyhound feels like a stepping stone. Where previous wartime productions that Hanks helped spearhead had the grit, suspense, and complex characterization that defines great modern drama,
Greyhound is a stripped-down touring production with an unexpectedly recognizable lead. It’s a serviceable way to spend 90 minutes, but serviceable isn’t saying much.
