I am not a fan of goofy indy movies but William H Macy is one of my favorite actors. I'm glad I took the shot. It wasn't one of those bizarre, pretentious things, but a funny, followable story with endearing characters. I found myself laughing a lot.
My husband and I enjoyed this movie. We weren't sure what it would be like and were pleasantly surprised. It made me laugh out loud in a few places and was entertaining.
...and, obvious, I do not know why. For actors is a reasonable motif. For the crazy - nice mix of romance, religion, disfunctional family, a book and Nick Robinson can be the other. For Kathy Bates, no doubt. But the real cause remains the great virtues of each indie film , source of a state, so familiar, than vehicle of a story. Crumbs of familiar near reality are always precious. So, just I love it.
The movie definitely had some strange turn of events but overall I really enjoyed it and what can I say?! Rosario Dawson is great!!
Rosario Dawson looks way better than she has any right to, therefore an 18 year old falls for her, while having to deal with his liberal family, the jealous ex-lover of the woman and her paraplegic son. A lot of weird situations and a lot of humor to them make the case shine. However, the plot is strange, moving from dangerous situations that are described in an almost cartoonish way in order to diminish their darkness, to embarrassingly cliched romantic scenes that are simply ridiculous. It is almost impossible to take anything serious, even the situations which were not meant to be funny.
Bottom line: Nick Robinson is clearly going places and his charm saves the day. All the others, including gorgeous Dawson, do more than required of an actor in this kind of movie, which, I guess, is a testament to Macy's talent as a director. Storywise, though, it's a ridiculous movie and its rating will never go above average. It's a fun film, though.
