Cleaner

A grieving forensic cleaner, tasked with meticulously scrubbing crime scenes, finds himself framed for murder after uncovering evidence of a cover-up. He must race against time and the authorities to clear his name and expose the truth. The investigation leads him into a dangerous conspiracy involving powerful figures.

Cleaner received generally negative reviews from critics, who found the plot predictable and convoluted. While some acknowledged the performances of Samuel L. Jackson and Ed Harris, they were not enough to salvage the film's weak script and uninspired direction. Audiences also seemed largely unimpressed, contributing to its poor box office performance.

• The film suffers from a muddled and predictable plot.

• Performances are overshadowed by a weak script and uninspired direction.

• Fails to deliver a compelling or original thriller experience.

Google audience: Google users found the movie to be somewhat engaging, with many appreciating Samuel L. Jackson's presence. However, a significant portion of viewers criticized the plot for being convoluted and the ending for being unsatisfying, leading to mixed overall feelings.

Director Renny Harlin was originally attached to direct a different film called 'The Chef' which was meant to star Samuel L. Jackson, but that project fell apart. Harlin then jumped onto 'Cleaner' with Jackson.
