“u0026quot;Please Giveu0026quot; is the story of a husband and wife who butt heads with the granddaughters of the elderly woman who lives in apartment the couple owns, how things are intertwined and how circumstances eventually gets to them in both right and wrong way.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCast-wise, pretty good. Oliver Platt is very likable as the cool and flirty husband, with Catherine Keener playing his better half wondrously. Rebecca Hall is the core of this movie, giving a very powerful performance of a doting granddaughter, who sacrifices a lot for taking care of her grandmother. Amanda Peet does decently in her role of a beauty conscious stony-hearted sister of Rebecca Hall. A special mention for the two grandmothers, who were very natural in their act.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Please Giveu0026quot; is not entertaining; neither will it remain in your mind for quite some time. It might get irksome someplace, but having said, itu0026#39;s because it has been made in a very lifelike or rather natural, devoid of unnecessary cheap entertaining stuffs. It gets funny most of the times, but not ROFL stuff. Itu0026#39;s decent enough to be enjoyable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOverall, u0026quot;Please Giveu0026quot; is a sincere attempt to portray the life of two neighbors and their twist with life, once they get to know each other well or rather unwell. Itu0026#39;s not recommended for people seeking fun and entertainment. Rather, itu0026#39;s a movie for someone looking for a mild funny, mild serious (non)-family movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy Verdict: 6/10”
