Review of The Angriest Man in Brooklyn (2014) by Urby — 15 Oct 2015
As one of Robin Williams last film credits, I really REALLY tried to like this movie. The writing in this movie is all over the place and at times it can be difficult to determine what the films message ultimately is. Not to mention that the casting of Williams is totally wrong. I almost think the film would have played out a lot better if Dinklage and Williams had switched places.
Williams portrays a hateful, racist jerk and the put it simply, he just isn't that guy. Sure he can joke at the expense of others, but in a way that never feels aggressive or cruel. Also, I'm no prude, but the foul language throughout the feel was not only completely unnecessary but also borderline shocking.
Really disappointing, and not a title that Williams should be remembered for.
