Review of Jack Goes Boating (2010) by Nicci L — 18 Sep 2010
REALLY disappointed with this film. Hoffman is one of my favorite actors but he may not be the best director. The pace of the story was excruciatingly slow with low quality dialog for most of the film. I never really connected with his character - he was so low key and quiet that he just wasn't that interesting. We don't know why he is the way he is...he's just...boring.
The story could have been so much better - the pieces were there to really dig into these people's lives - but they got jumbled and drowned in poor direction and a bad script. The story wandered and floated without cohesion or build up. Definitely not worth $12.
