Review of This Must Be the Place (2011) by Hassan V — 02 Jun 2012

I thought that Sean Penn played a superb role in this film; the direction that he received was virtual perfection. I thought the editing as well as the establishment of the camera shots was cinematic excellence. However, having said these positive comments about the film, I still felt disappointed because I did not enjoy the film as I normally do.

I think anybody that makes the effort to see this film must be prepared to see Penn play a pretty strange character but play him about as well as could be played. The supporting roles were all very classy with no weak spots anywhere as far as I could tell. My problem was with the script I guess.
