Box Office: Grossing just half of initial projections in its opening weekend, the Will Smith-led drama will make back its budget and a little change, but it's far from the holiday hit Warner Bros. were banking on.

Verdict: An hilariously misguided attempt at an Oscar-baiting drama, Collateral Beauty not only manipulates audiences with a misleading marketing campaign, but one-ups this with an extremely cruel, outrageously implausible series of events that's more a baffling, flaming trainwreck than the achingly human drama it clearly wants to be.

Will Smith's trying, but for the most part the stunning cast (including Edward Norton, Kate Winslet, Michael Pena, Keira Knightley, Helen Mirren and Naomie Harris) are completely wasted in this soul-destroyingly awful film.
