Review of Le Week-End (2013) by Leon B — 15 Feb 2014

Review:

I really enjoyed this heart warming story of a middle age couple in Paris for there wedding anniversary. The writing is brilliant along with the acting by Broadbent & Duncan. I really didn't know what to expect from this movie, but I thought that I would give it a chance, and I was glad that I did. The storyline is funny, emotional and full of drama throughout. Jeff Goldblum was a great choice for his role and it's good to see him back on screen with his weird expressions and gestures. I give full credit to the writers who got the best from the leading actors and made the movie entertaining and a great watch.

Round-Up:

What ever did happen to Jeff Goldblum? At one point, he was in massive Blockbusters like Independence Day and Jurassic Park, and then he just seemed to slip off the radar. It's was good to see him in this movie because he hasn't lost his unique way of acting. Jim Broadbent seems to be in quite a few movies in the latter part of his career. From Harry Potter to Moulin Rouge, his acting style is obviously loved by directors, and in this movie, he was brilliant. Lindsay Duncan was also a great choice for his wife who seemed pretty schizophrenic. Anyway, I couldn't see anyone else playing the roles in this movie.

I recommend this movie to people who are into there movies about a couple celebrating there wedding anniversary in Paris and questioning there marriage. 6/10.
