'Southland Tales' is a less than convincing drama

Anyone familiar with Richard Kelly’s excellent Donnie Darko will be disappointed with Southland Tales (Universal, e24.99), the eagerly awaited follow-up.

Unfortunately, this less than convincing drama not only fails to fit a clear category, but also gets lost in a post-9/11 mess.

Justin Timberlake and Sarah Michelle Gellar try to make sense of it all, but are as hopelessly lost as the viewer.
