Oh it's been a while since I've done a movie review. Mostly because of a lack of any interest for the last few months. There really hasn't been anything to get too excited over. This one on the other hand had quite a good amount of buzz behind it. Mostly for the stellar cast. Unfortunately, the cast is the best part of the movie.
The movie is just so.... average. There's nothing wrong with it. But there's nothing that really stands out either. Unless you just have to see Robert Duvall pooping himself. In way more detail than I ever wanted to see.
The acting is top notch. Robert Duvall steals the show and Robert Downey, Jr. is of course brilliant. But that's really where the praise for the movie ends. Everything else is just so vanilla. It's not boring, but for what it could've been, it's just middle of the road.
The story is fairly simple but told in an overly dramatized manner. An estranged, but successful lawyer in Chicago son returns to his simple Indiana town for his mom's funeral. Shortly thereafter, his judge father is accused of murder.
I really don't have much to say about it because it's just so unremarkable. Expect to see this on free TV.
