SUPERB
7 July 2019 | by byron-116 – See all my reviews

There is only one word I can say about Greg Kinnear's "Phil": SUPERB

Brilliant performances, engaging story, lovely music, and so very much more!

I just hope that that AMPAS will have the wisdom to recognize PHIL and Greg Kinnear come Oscar time
