Last Call

People are not entirely good or entirely bad, this is a model movie that portrays a man doing the right thing in the wrong way. On one hand he is trying to provide for his family and climb up the ranks but on the other hand he does morally wrong things and neglects his family in the process. He is a man we can relate to and in this movie we become invested in him neither hating him nor loving him but sympathizing with him.

Something unexpected happens and our investment becomes even heightened, we cry, laugh and cry all over again. You see happiness, sadness and pure life in this movie - well acted. It is also nice to see marriage portrayed in all it's ups and downs without adding too much drama other than that of unexpected life.

I loved this movie and would recommend it!

A correct film not only for acting, storytelling, twist and atmosphere but for the science to remind significant things. A direct and honest way to propose the fair suggestion when, so often, the family life is in balance with profesional suces and, at first sigh, all seems very, very simple. A good story and the perfect cast.

Everyone of these characters has depth and is very well textured.

There really wasn't a minor character. There were extras of course but the small selection of characters each had at least two scenes showing 2 different traits that added richness to themselves and to what they had to offer to the primary story line.

Even among the films available to fans of the 2016 festival this one stands out.

A better example of character building I have not seen at this festival. Every film maker has something to learn from watching this film.

So very well done - thank you.

This film tells the story of a successful headhunter, who puts his career first and family second. The unexpected illness of his son makes him re-evaluate his priorities and decisions in his life.

I find this film unexpectedly good. Both Gerard Butler and Gretchen Mol are very good in their roles as heartbroken parents. In addition, Gerard Butler delivers the intensity of a ruthless career man who is charismatic on the outside, but not as beautiful in the inside. The plot is captivating and touching. I really enjoyed watching it.

"A Family Man" is a Drama movie in which we watch Dane Jensen, a successful corporate headhunter who is caught between the pressures of his demanding job and his responsibilities as a father and husband. As Dane faces a tough career decision, he's forced to reassess his priorities when his family's well-being is put in jeopardy.

The movie explores themes of work-life balance, personal sacrifice, and the struggle to make meaningful connections in the midst of professional ambition. In addition to this, the heartfelt interpretation of Gerard Butler who played as Dane Jensen elevates the whole movie. The emotional core of the story is compelling, and the personal conflicts Dane faces are relatable. The supporting cast, including Alison Brie who played as Lynn, gives solid performances, helping to create a believable family dynamic. The movie deals with important and relevant themes, it follows a familiar territory while the story-line might seem predictable, with only some fresh insights its plot twists make it even more interesting. The character development is well established and it does not feel limited. In conclusion, I have to say that "A Family Man" is a decent film with a strong emotional core that it also offers a solid portrayal of a man at a crossroads in his life. If you appreciate family dramas then I am sure that you will enjoy this movie.
