This movie should be more like a 6.5 or 7

I Love Michael C. Hall and if you liked Six Feet Under or Dexter I would highly recommend this film. It has an indie feel, it's not for anyone looking for an action film or a romantic comedy. Very real down to earth movie, if you have ever been depressed or felt like hiding away then you could related to the main character. All the acting is very well done and the female actresses "Brie Larson" "Lucy Lu" and "Sarah Shahi" are very attractive. It's also not going to take up much time at about an hour and a half. I got this movie out not expecting much because of the mediocre rating, but I'll let you be the judge because I was pleasantly surprised.

The usual indie blender-car

What's a blender car? Suppose you're out buying cars and the salesman tells you that this car's special feature is that not only will it take you places, provide a great GPS system etc, but it has a blender built into the back seat. Are you impressed?

Pretty much every indie movie I see is a blender-car. Rather than concentrating on perfecting the A-story, the scriptwriter and/or director and/or producer insist on throwing in a totally irrelevant blender which simply wastes time and detracts from the main story. For this particular movie, the blender is, I can't even describe it, some weird theory that conspiracies of unknown people secretly control the world or something. It certainly has nothing to do with the A-story of man-child growing up after two sub-optimal female encounters.

So what's the bottom line? The A-story is something you've seen a million times. Man child, grumpy father, precocious 18yr old girl, you know the deal. I kept watching it because the verve and unpredictability of Brie Larson was delightful, but that's not enough. Meanwhile the blender is just pointless with no sort of payoff and no connection to the rest of the movie; removing its 5 minutes would have changed utterly nothing.

So, yeah, don't waste your time. The best dialog occurs in the first ten minutes, and waiting for the rest of the movies to reproduce that spark is just disappointing.

Meh... you aren't missing anything

It's not funny. Kinda quirky & really just "ok" Was kind of a let down really. But if you're looking for an arty, indie type movie then this might be for you. Even on those terms though, I'd still call it average at best
