Title: A good Head Fake
Review: A return to respectability for Meryl Streep. (I didn't care for her musical) This is a slow, character driven piece that I was totally head faked into believing that Streep was the unreasonable one. I agree with one reviewer that there are no real good characters here--except perhaps for the little boy. But then again, we see nothing through his eyes. I like Amy Adams but she felt more like wallpaper in this piece. To me, Hoffman didn't bring his A game--but Meryl is the master of the game. It's a good solid movie.
