MCT:May 16, 2008At the conclusion of this hour and a half film, I was left scratching my head wondering what all the buzz was about and also what the hell actually happened in the film. Clearly, director Noah Baumbach wants us to take away some deeper message about relationships and family, but the whole thing is rather murky. I thoroughly enjoyed his last film, "The Squid and the Whale," but try as I might to find something in this film that interested me, it just didn't happen...even with my favorite actress, Ms. Kidman, in the title role.

I really liked The squid & the Whale and thatīs pretty much the reason why I wanted to see this movie, by same director Noah Baumbach. He created very believable and natural characters in the Squid & the Whale. And the movie had this nice feeling right true It. There were some fine characters in this movie to, Jack Black and Nicole Kidman does some fine acting and so does the children. It all feel very real and sad. Though the story didnīt appealed to me in the same way as " the squid & the whale" But It gets three stars. I hope for the next one Noah

MCT:May 15, 2008Upon first viewing, this movie completely frustrated me, more than any movie or even most real life situations ever have. Margot was such a horrible mother. It was heartbreaking. Claude was such an amazing kid, and she was just sabotaging him and raising him in unhealthy ways. I was in a bad mood for a few hours after that. Upon watching it the second time, I thought it was amazing and it changed my opinion from a four to a five star rating. The portrait was just brilliant. It is close to a four star, just because some of the symbolism was blaringly loud. But, just watching it to see the characters was amazing. It was so frustrating, but even more interesting and very well done. I am biased in my rating though, since I tend to enjoy movies about New Englanders, hippies, crazies, and the likes. This movie is definitely not for everyone and can easily put you in a horrible mood. Beware.

Difficult film and depressing... Even if the acting was good the characters didn't feel real, it was mostly a lot of psychological bla bla with no REAL meaning to it. Can only give it 3 stars.

i adore this movie. so intricate, subtle, and painfully realistic. nicole kidman and jack black are both wonderful and hilarious. it's a beautifully scripted and the cinematography is gorgeous. if you're looking for a generic conflict & resolution type of a story with fast paced action, this is NOT for you. don't knock it cus you don't care for it. he's a great director. squid and the whale is awesome too. :)
