1367 - W


First off, I was blown away to see that it was Thandi Newton in this film. She's practically unrecognizable. The performances in this film are what makes it worth watching. The scenes with Josh Brolin and the wonderful Elizabeth Banks humanize these characters in a way that makes them almost endearing. The film was enjoyable enough, but it just felt like a series of scenes and moments - the only real tie being his relationship with his father, and living under his shadow. It's an odd film to want to make for Stone. Can't say I highly recommend it, but if you're interested, there's enough there to keep you watching it.
