I wasn't expecting much from "The Good Things". I mean, a twenty five minute movie about a toll booth worker? It hardly sounds like the most moving thing. But it is. You really connect with the main character of Zach, thanks mainly to an excellent performance from Wil Wheaton.
I would recommend this movie to everyone. A well written and well directed piece filled with great performances all round but especially from Mr Wheaton.
