I went to see The Weather Man (view trailer). I really enjoyed it. But of course, if you know me, I'm a sucker for any quirky film about suburbanized families and small life-changing discoveries for one particular lost soul. Uh... no seriously, I call it American Beauty syndrome. This movie isn't as dark. Although, much of the humor was very dark.
David Spritz's continual failures (not always his fault) with his children, his father, and his ex-wife are amusing and painfully awkward. He simply can't look good in front of them. When he finally has his moment to be the hero, I wanted to stand up and start clapping. A very satisfying movie with an honest resolution, which I appreciate.
