Featured review
Less than the sum of it's parts...
...Which is odd, to say the least.
If you love film, you'll find something to take from this. If it's just simple entertainment you seek, best look elsewhere.
It's a puzzler - read some of the polarising reviews - in a way, it reminded me of Jim Carrey in 'The Cable Guy'; you don't get what you expect, and that can be a shock to some, and a boon to others.
Interestingly, and unexpectedly, I now think more of Jack Black - mayhap he just hasn't had the right vehicle to stretch his talents fully in, yet.
It's never going to make the pantheon, but it does have some things of merit; not least of which is the ability to make you cringe whilst not looking away. The how-can-it-possibly-be-resolved expectation is uncomfortably high.
I liked it; the discomfort, as it dawns on you, is tremendous and it walks its' line well - not subtle, but hey - I imagine the studio execs having a nightmare trying to decide how to market this. Whether it dawns on you, or slaps you in the face, will depend...
Once you've watched it, just think on that for a minute - because that vapid 'Tries to get reunion together' rubbish just doesn't cover it, does it?
Loved the soundtrack - especially the INXS lyricism - and some of the lines were priceless. (Lawnchairs)
I liked it. I feel the ending was rushed a little, but then, how else to cover bases?
