Review

definitely a solid sophmore effort from sam mendes. wasn’t as thoroughly enjoyable as american beauty, but it did keep me interested from beginning to end. newman, hanks and the kid all did a very good job with their characters and the movie relied a lot upon those performances so it’s good they came through. the ending was like the one in american beauty in that it had the ability to be both depressing and hopeful at the same time. likely to be nominated for an oscar.
