Review of Cake (2014) by Michael W — 25 Jan 2015
I think Jennifer Aniston is a terribly under-appreciated actress (see "Good Girl" or "Friends with Money" for a few excellent performances) and she was very good here (as was Adriana Barraza), but alas, the movie itself just isn't that great.
It wanted to be a certain kind of film, but didn't have the emotional depth to pull it off. It's grim and joyless without any redemption or satisfaction.
