Review of Greenberg (2010) by S. C — 04 Aug 2011

Although 'Greenberg' is well assured in strong performances by its cast, its complete lack of charm is so alienating that it makes the film a chore by its halfway-mark. Baumbach directs with a steady hand and probably achieves what he wants, but the entertainment value is very low.

Its hard to find a reason to sympathize with some of the characters and their relationships. Its all so very depressing, but that might've been the goal all along. Its an honest portrayal at life and the psychological battles it offers.
