Review of Win Win (2011) by John A — 04 Mar 2012
A film that has its heart in the right place, even as the execution has its flaws around the edges. McCarthy emphasizes the comedy of the piece without pushing it too far over the edge and leaving the drama behind.
Most everything surrounding the kid, Kyle, is well done, leaving much of his past as a loose end. Also, Amy Ryan is magnificent with her well rounded character. That said, the character of the friend and the mother are cartoonish, and the end is just a bit too neat.
