Review of Peacock (2010) by Jake . — 22 Jun 2010
So, I hadn't actually realized that Peacock was set in Nebraska, not Iowa, until looking at the little description thing right now. It explains the whole strangness of the story anyway. Lets just say that John's story would not cause all that alarm or concern in Iowa.
Apparently things are different in Nebraska. I'm also surprsised that this went straight to dvd. Not only is the film rather good, but the cast is fantastic. Cillian Murphy just completely clicks with the role.
He could hold up the film without the aid of the likes of Ellen Page, Josh Lucas, and Susan Sarandon. The actual film is fasinating, but really kind of busy. There is just too much going on. The film never really seems to have much direction or much of a plot.
Still, it is certainly a achievement in my opinion, even if it does falll on a bit of a flat note.
