Igby Goes Down was a bit of a surprise when i saw it on television last night. A while ago i said that on IMDb the ratings done by voters isn't what i am going to look for if i want to see a movie. I love this site for information but some people should be screened on intellect to give some reviews in my opinion.
That said, this film isn't a feel good movie and i agree that it sometimes is hard to identify yourself in the characters.
However the little story and the absolute phenomenal acting from the cast makes this to a film well worth watching. The guy who plays Igby does a very good job and the rest from the cast is also doing their part.
It's absolutely no waste of time to watch. Just don't expect to have a good light laugh direct after the film. I give it a solid 8.
