Has anyone else seen this film?
I watched it this evening on Netflix. It was too "New York" for my taste.
It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. The first half was honestly too annoying but I kept with it and then it got better during the second half.
I am not really one who likes the overlapping conversation type of films that the New York style is known for. I also did not care much for the editing where they just cut off someone in the middle of a sentence. The camera work was a bit odd as well.
But if you like that kind of thing then I would recommend it.
The actors all did a pretty decent job though. I thought Ben Stiller was very good. Nice to see him get into an emotional part. Was a little disappointed in Dustin Hoffman. He is one of my favorite actors, but he seemed to phone in this performance.
So I was just wondering what other opinions on this film are.
