A Murder mystery starring Wesley Snipes and the late great Sean Connery? Heck yes! It sounded like such a fun combination and it is but in the end it was a bummer.

Rising Sun is a murder mystery directed by Philip Kaufman, based on a book by Michael Crichton. Web and Conner (Snipes and Connery) need to solve a murder of a call girl during a party. East and West collide, who has done it, a sleazy reporter (Steve Buscemi). video editing, pubic hair, Sean Connery speaking Japanese, a little bit of action, some one-liners and a bummer of an ending.

Somehow I thought this one would highly entertain me, but maybe it was because I was a bit tired, but the movie felt like it didn't come to an end, and about three quarters in, I lost my interest in the story a bit. However it is fun to see Sean Connery play off Wesley Snipes in his 90s prime.
