More than a decade before Bryan Cranston cemented his place among the pantheon of popular culture as the beleaguered, cash-strapped father willing to do anything to keep his family afloat on Malcolm in the Middle, the Might Morphin’ Power Rangers and Seinfeld star was a struggling actor, headlining this oddball crime thriller directed by his dad, Joe. Cranson joins Academy Award winner Ernest Borgnine in the Big Turnaround, a tale about a group a ragtag misfits who come together to take on a crime lord’s drug trafficking operation on the US/Mexico border, which sounds vaguely like another Bryan Cranston project, the name of which we can’t remember…
