Review of Take This Waltz (2011) by Garry S — 07 Jul 2012
Sarah Polley just gets it. Take This Waltz isn't a conventional Hollywood love story. It mirrors life.. There are no quick resolutions, not everything in life has a happy ending. The nudity in the film isn't gratuitous, it's just there.. like it would be in real life.
There are moments in this film I would consider the best of the summer.. The swimming pool scene, the scene on the scrambler, the shower scene .. These are moments you look at and in some note relate to.
Michele Williams performance as Margo is spot on, and Seth Rogan is actually not annoying.
In a summer filled with Avengers and the usual summer blockbusters, Take This Waltz actually appeals to the over 30 crowd. I would call this one of the best movies of 2012 so far.
