Torture

Sorry, but I thought it was torturous to sit through this movie. The story was hard to follow and Holmes' character was overly "cute" with the dialogue and "I'm so cool and funny" attitude. It probably didn't help that the guy behind me was knocking his knees against the back of my chair and the woman in front of me was checking her iphone constantly (which gives off a blinking light effect).
No, I do not recommend this movie.

A Masterpiece

George Clooney shows depth and genuine emotion in this timely, painfully relevant story about a man who fires people for a living and likes the isolated life he leads. His journey toward human connection is at times humorous, at times sad, but always thoughtfully entertaining. Clooney has never been funnier, more believable, or more vulnerable. The musical score is fantastic, especially the wistful song called "Help Yourself" by Sad Brad Smith that plays during a wedding montage. Can't wait to buy the soundtrack!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
