Review of Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (2011) by Tom S — 22 Jul 2014

I am surprised so few critics and viewers liked this movie. Maybe "like" isn't even the right word to use. This is a slow-starter, which makes it somewhat frustrating to stay with, but once the movie gets going it does an effective job of exploring how we deal with grief and guilt, and how those two things are often intertwined with one another.
