Review of Running with Scissors (2006) by Kata Rina D — 26 Aug 2008
I didn't like it. I know it is supposed to be based on actual events, but I never believed anything that happened.
Acting was rather good I think. But for some reason, it seemed to be trying to be what is popularly called "Wes Anderson like" movie. I personally don't like Anderson all that much, and get annoyed when some excellent movies are compared with his mediocre work, but here I'm, comparing this to Wes. Honestly, this was the first movie I saw that I really did think it is trying to be "Wes like". And the fact that I don't like Wes wasn't the main problem. The main problem is that Anderson is doing comedies. This had no business in comedy realm.
It was also very pathetic at some points.
