DIRECTOR: Tim McCanlies
STUDIO: New Line Cinema
STARRING: Michael Caine, Robert Duvall, Haley Joel Osment
GENRE: Comedy, Drama
GRADE: B
This movie was truly unexpected. It almost seems to come out of nowhere, with that strangest plot and characters, but somehow...it seems to work. Both Caine and Duvall are perfect for their carefree, elderly characters, and Duvall can bring in the seriousness/depth for how hurt he was. Osment did a fair job as well, but he didn't really have the best dialouge to work with.
The directing in this movie is almost as close to flawless as you can get! Every line that is delivered is great and mostly hysterical! There was very little character development, but there really wasn't any that needed, except for maybe the old men, but that was just slightly.
It is a STRANGE and RANDOM movie, to put it in laymen's terms, but it was very enjoyable and fun.
