Giamatti superb in a superb film
3 July 2008
Wow, what a tour de force performance from Giamatti. He is so good that he makes it look easy. A great movie, thought provoking, and beautifully filmed, although in a subdued way. Certainly not for everyone, but I thought it was very very good. An unusual mixture of characters and situations, but there is something here that almost anyone can relate to.

No car chases, violent gruesome murders, or slick production, or product placement ads, or cool, hip cultural references, which made it all the more enjoyable for me. The messages of the film the viewer has to figure out on her own; there is no hammer that you are hit with over the head. Superb job by all.
