“Hollywould” (** out of four) was a mediocre action melodrama about a celebrity writer (Pete Postiglione) who returns to his hometown to seek inspiration for his next novel but soon meets up with a strange yet seductive woman named Holly (Caitlyn Fletcher) who turns his life inside-and-out. Lots of flashy touches and good individual scenes that unfortunately don’t add up to a cohesive or satisfying whole because it’s too weird although Eric Roberts has one of his best roles in years as an over-the-hill cop who’s retiring. A clever title in search of a better movie.
