Review of Everything Must Go (2011) by Kj P — 09 Dec 2011
Will Ferrell plays Nick, an 'about to get divorced' man who recently got fired from his job, living on his front yard, obeying the rules to stay out of his house. As all of his belongings rest on his front lawn, he hits like the drunk he is, until he is forced to move or sell everything in a yard sale.
We meet characters like Samantha (Rebecca Hall) and Chris, the little kid who he needed to realize what he has been missing. The little hidden messages throughout this film are fantastic, and everyone should watch and learn from it.
Will Ferrell finally gives a career defining dramatic performance, in which I actually felt for. This movie will never show signs of dullness, the performances are real, the pacing is soothing, and the conclusion is more than fitting.
From it's extremely subtle humour, to it's terrifically engaging events (credit to the writer), "Everything Must Go" is definitely one of the best films of 2011!
