tony scott has done five movies with denzel. overall, it's a great true story about real american heroes. >> great. what is your letter grade on this one? >> well, this one i would give an a minus. it was number one at the box office last night, with $8.1 million. i think lit do $23 million for the weekend. >> denzel is a big draw. okay, let's talk about "morning glory." usually i kind of cringe, movies about tv news and how we do it. what do you think about this "morning glory?" >> sure. sometimes it hits a little too close to home for the tv biz. but overall, this was a disappointing film. it's very formulaic. but the story, if you're in the tv business, is kind of interesting. it's about a woman who was fired from her local tv job and takes an executive producer role as the head of the worst rated morning news show in the nation and she has to really turn it around. so here's some clips of that film. you can see what the actors are doing. >> let's watch. ♪ >> i would like to offer you the position of co-host of "daybreak." >>
