“This movie was a joy to watch. I didnu0026#39;t know what to expect when I came into it. I had heard the buzz of the acting and the story, etc…but weu0026#39;ve all heard that before and had been disappointed, but not so with this one.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eKevin Spacey plays this part to a u0026quot;Tu0026quot;. He is strong when it requires and meek when it is needed. His emotional rollercoaster ride is a trip to partake in. Annette Bening is marvelous as well. I think they both should be nominated.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe support cast is also spectacular. Thora Birch, Wes Bentley, and Mena Suvari all give great performances as the troubled u0026quot;Teenagersu0026quot; in the film. Of particular mention is Wes Bentleyu0026#39;s performance, worthy of a supporting nomination as well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a dramatic and funny tale of a man and his life in a state of turmoil and transition. When he happens to see a beautiful friend of his daughteru0026#39;s at a cheerleading exhibition, he is completely infatuated with her beauty. Using this as his inspiration, he attempts to change all aspects of his life. He confronts his marriage, his job, his ego, and his libido.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe music in this film is also very well chosen. There are moments when the music fits so perfectly with the scene that they meld together as one to present a perfect emotion.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe plot can get rather involved, but you will follow it endlessly to see where you go. I was simply involved, hook, line and sinker.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSee this movie more than once, and skip some of the other movies out now that are dare I say, trash.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis should be on the top of many criticu0026#39;s lists this year and it is certainly on top of mine.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy Rating (1 – 10): 10”
