Title: Entertaining film. . . and isn't that what counts?
Review: I found that I really enjoyed this movie, despite that fact that it seems to take itself a bit too seriously.The cast is nothing short of phenomonal. Tomlin, Hoffman and Law deliver excellent performances and I loved seeing Lily Tomlin in a commercially viable film again. But the credit really has to go to Jason Schwartzman. He is greatly underappreciated as an actor and when seeing this film, you have to wonder how is that possible? He blew away the rest of the cast with his performance and I look forward to seeing him in other upcoming projects.Mark Wahlberg was a nice surprise too. I hope that he gets other roles where he can display his acting ability instead of junk like the Italian Job.The movie throws out some neat ideas, but it does tend to border on the ridiculous. The only real message that I received from it was this: Everyone suffers and we should take comfort in each other and realize that we are never alone in our pain.
Is the review positive or negative?
