Mithrandir Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Apparently, Tarantino speaks highly of this movie. Did not expect someone like him to praise a Nancy Myers movie.I enjoyed the Intern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) Wow, was this an interesting movie! One of the darkest comedies I've seen in a long time...so dark it took a while to give myself permission to laugh. Daryl Sabara gives a great performance as a son that any father would hate, and when the son dies unexpectedly in the most embarrassing of circumstances, dark comedy ensues. The nature of the death (auto-strangulation) made it an awkward viewing experience, considering that it was Robin Williams in the lead as the father that tries to cover up the cause of death. The movie is a comment on how we often canonize (not-so-great) people after their death. Worth watching. Edited August 23, 2017 by goose 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a lot of the films that Mr williams did, I wonder what they meant to him. Especially how things panned out. Really miss Mr Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormtron Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 This sucked. The description made it sound like a Duel/Joy Ride/that segment from Nightmares type thing...I enjoy those car stalker movies...but nah, it's a typical slasher. The main girl might be the dumbest character in a horror movie. Almost everything she does will have you yelling at the screen. Not a good flick, but I had fun roasting it with the wife. We called the killer Fender Bender the whole time and giggled like idiots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would fit in with the car stalker style you're talking about ... That, and Race With The Devil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
