I don’t really have much to say about this one, besides that it looks like it could go either way. Premiering at Sundance, the movie follows a lonely, recently divorced man (John C. Reilly) who meets the woman of his dreams (Marisa Tomei) – the only problem being her 21-year-old resentful son (Jonah Hill). It looks like we are going to see something a little more restrained from Hill, which surely will have all eyes on his to see if there is more to him than just the loud-mouthed asshole that people want to pin him as in his movies.
It’s written and directed by the Duplass Brothers, who some may remember from the mediocre Baghead. Again, I think this movie could go either way from what I see in the trailer (which, I must say, has an awesome use of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes), but with these three and Catherine Keener on board as the ex-wife, I wouldn’t be surprised if this turned out to be quite the gem. That four very solid actors to have in your film. Keep your eyes peeled for Sundance reviews around the web, which are hopefully positive.
