Review of Broken Flowers (2005) by Simo H — 15 Nov 2008
A pretty typical Bill Murray arty standstill black comedy in a room with 'Lost In Translation' and 'The Life Aquatic', following the reclusive Don Johnston as he sets out to find out which of his past lovers is the mother of his supposed son.
Everything about this film can be summed up with the word 'fair'- there's nothing particularly bad about it, and nothing particularly good about it. It's watchable and even likeable, just not that memorable.
Bill Murray is great at what he does, but unlike many, I do not find staring at his gormless expression a satisfying pastime...
