Movie Reviews

You will definitely enjoy this movie. Don't believe the low rating

I give it a 7 1/2. You might not recognize the lead actor's name "Michael Shannon" but you will recognize him in the movie. He did a marvelous job in a complex role. Just the right amounts of understatement, humor, and insight in his role. His acting made you feel for his situation and made you want him to succeed.Kate Hudson did a very good job in her role. She was believable, funny, and showed she could act, not just play Kate Hudson.All of the other actors were excellent in their supporting roles.The girl who plays the hotel clerk hit it out of the park with her understated performance. Only on screen for a couple of scenes but you can recognize her from every hotel you've stayed at.The story line is funny, the directing is good, and the movie has good pace. You never look at the clock and wonder how much longer is the movie.I don't get the low reviews because it is well acted, funny, and very entertaining.

Worth a watch

"I only wonder if your little deception plays out as a comedy or a tragedy......... Is there any difference?"It starts out a little slow but I couldn't look away wondering where it was all going. As it moves along it keeps you wondering who is the real writer Shriver. It is a comedy and a funny look at the world of writing. I liked it. I really liked Michael Shannon in this as well as the familiar faces of Don Johnson, Kate Hudson and M. Emmet Walsh.Is it a Hollywood Blockbuster? No. Is it for everyone? No. But if you have any interest in writing, reading Novels or Michael Shannon it is worth a watch.
