It won me over, Michael Cera playing an awkward teenager and Ellen Page playing a hip teen that uses witty slang like "I'm going to bounce".
Then from nowhere I found myself thinking damn, this is good fun. Typical oscar bait type film though, but I have to admit.. I did enjoy it. |

Nick Cage is a weird one. Seems like for every 5 shite films he's in, there's always one that's brilliant and blows any doubts I had about his acting ability out of the water. This is one of the latter - one of the most depressing films of all time draws such a great performance from Cage (best portrayal of a compulsive alcoholic I've ever seen). Liz Shue does a great job too, so it's not a one-man show by any means. |
