Baffled

I went to see this film urged by the sea of positive reviews from critics and layfolk. I'm baffled. The film is a tedious and annoying rendition of the hackneyed buddy flick. The acting is good, extraordinary at times (Jack's dim realization of his own inadequacies positively glowed), but the story and direction offers the viewer nothing in the way of involvement in the characters' lives or problems. The only thing the film gave me was a thirst for pinot noir and for my money back. |
