I didn't have a problem with Barney's Version per se.... it just ran a little too long for what it tried to achieve. I've seen highway roadkill movies and how it gets scooped up off the side of the road that get more to the point than this film does. And that's not necessarily a bad thing... but in this particular case, it is.
Pay attention to Paul Giamatti's hair throughout the film. Full head = past, balding = distant past, bald spot = the now, baby. Yes, the movie has something to do with Barney (Giamatti) and his somehow/somewhat involvement of the death of a rock 'n roll legend and the movie is told via flashbacks. As I said... pay attention to the hair.
The characters are intriguing enough for some.... but.... it would be nice to put some story or drama along with it to make some scenes rather dramatic. As it stands, we don't actually see any type of conflict until the very tail end of the film -- which is a dire shame. More reviews at www.soveryterry.com Final Grade: C
