Review of The Descendants (2011) by Writing1 — 26 Nov 2011
The Descendants manages to take a potentially compelling story and drain it of much interest. The cuckolded husband comes across as merely clueless and his daughters as foul-mouthed brats. As for the storyline about the inheritance, it seems tacked on.
This is a confused movie that could have been so much better had the writers been more skilled. It wasn't helped by Clooney's overacted comic moments.
