Negative Positive
Title: Nice Try
Review: Despite a nice effort on the part of Jesse Nelson, I Am Sam did not turn out how I expected it to. Sean Penn, however, is absolutely brilliant. His performance isn't acting. It's something so much more than that. He is Sam. Also, Michelle Pfeiffer is my favorite actress working today. The combination of such talent and such beauty is so rare these days, and it's refreshing to see it in Pfeiffer. But even with these two amazing actors and the stellar supporting cast (although they do little to add to the film), the movie is very flawed. It's manipulative, forced, and contrived. But all means, try the movie, but don't expect to much.
Is the review positive or negative?
