A new comedy mystery film, ‘Poolman,’ directed by Chris Pine, is making waves with its quirky storyline and charismatic cast. The movie follows Darren, played by Pine, a pool cleaner turned amateur detective who uncovers a municipal conspiracy in Los Angeles.

Despite receiving mixed reviews at the Toronto International Film Festival, ‘Poolman’ charms audiences with its whimsical plot and engaging characters. Darren’s antics, including grandstanding at City Council meetings and forgetting details about his girlfriend, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh, add a humorous touch to the film.

Annette Bening and Danny DeVito round out the cast, portraying quirky characters who support Darren on his adventure. The film’s narrative, inspired by the California water grab in ‘Chinatown,’ offers a fresh take on the detective genre.
