Review of Larry Crowne (2011) by Danskipallen — 06 Jul 2011
Larry Crowne is about a man who has been fired from his job because he didn't have a college aducation. After talking to his next door nieghbor played hilariuosly by Cedric the Entertainer he decides to go to college and better his chances of finding a new job.
Unexpectedly though, he finds college to his likeing, especially his teacher played by Julia Roberts. Now this is the scond time Hanks and Roberts have starred together. The first being the hugely overlooked movie Charlie Wilsons War.
Hanks meets some interesting classmates as well, a young lady named Tatiana, who likes to make over people and she does just that for Larry Crowne. With some realy good charactor acting work from Brian Cranston ,George Takie, Cedric The Entertainer and Wilmer Valdarama Larry Crowne is a delightful surprise in a summer of explosions,sequals, animated kids flicks and comic book movies.
Larry Crowne is the fifth movie this year I've seen where a man is going through a midlife crisis and I think the acting in this is what puts it at the for front of the others. It shows the sighn of the times though and people should definately seek out this heart warming little movie.
