[tps_header]hen Sony Pictures announced earlier this week that they had canceled all the press screenings for No Good Deed co-starring Idris Elba as Colin, a prison escapee and Taraji P. Henson as Terry, a suburban housewife; I deliberated in my mind just why they would do such a thing. Was it because they predicted the film would be a flop, or maybe they wanted to add to the anticipation? After watching the film, I can definitely say it was the latter. It’s hard not to like a film starring the talented Brit Idris Elba, whom I interviewed a few years back – I so love that deep British accent. But I digress. It’s just the kind of thriller I enjoy, not too gory and just the right amount of suspense. Oh, and of course a huge plot twist – the reason Sony Pictures gave for canceling the press screening in the first place. This is the film to see with your BFF, your BF, or anyone with a pulse who meets the age requirement (It’s rated PG-13). Here’s six reasons to put it on your radar.[/tps_header]

You can’t help but sympathize with Colin at the beginning of the film and are excited to see how he turns from what seems like a mild-mannered man to possibly a wrongly arrested guy, who just needs a break.
