Directed by Matt Eskanderi

Release Date September 2nd, 2022
Before I can tackle criticism of the new movie Wire Room starring Bruce Willis I must address the elephant in the room. In previous reviews of the Bruce Willis movies Midnight in the Switchgrass and American Siege, I criticized Willis for appearing disinterested, bored and lazy. Well, since those reviews came out it was revealed that for the past few years Willis has been working through a condition called Aphasia.
Aphasia is a brain injury often associated with head injuries or stroke. It’s unknown when Bruce Willis first became afflicted with aphasia but it was before his recent spate of direct to streaming movies where Willis’ name value is more important than his performance. It’s been since at least 2016 that Willis began showing up in movies that paid him exorbitant amounts of money for glorified cameos. And since 2018 we’ve had rumors of Willis having to be fed lines through an earpiece because he had been unwilling or perhaps unable to read and retain his lines.
