Review of Whatever Works (2009) by Steven B — 26 Mar 2010
I really wanted to like this movie, but what I got was 90 minutes of contrived blathering. All of the dialogue is written from one perspective, each secondary character only there to provide fodder for the lead.
Boris' outlook on life is "whatever works," meaning that you should do whatever makes you happy at that time. Yet he spends the entire movie finding ways to be miserable and to make the lives around him miserable.
The film wants to be clever with its dialogue, but in the end it comes off like a bad high school play.
