DVD Review: Greg Kinnear’s Feel-Good ‘Flash of Genius’ Not Great

Submitted by BrianTT on February 16, 2009 - 1:17pm

DVD Rating: 2.5/5.0

CHICAGO – Greg Kinnear does solidly entertaining work in “Flash of Genius” and director Marc Abraham understands the basics of the inspirational crowd-pleaser, but the film ultimately feels like a missed opportunity to tell a more riveting version of the same story.
