Review of Wonder Boys (2000) by Jennifer A — 20 May 2008
This all star cast, each of whom having their own unique quirks, is accompanied with an interesting story that looks at one man's inability to make choses in his work and in life. Wonder Boys leaves you with a lasting impression, while taking you on a wild chase trying to hide a murdered dog, finding Marilyn Monroe's jacket, finishing a never ending novel, and making a choice about love.
It also makes you wonder why Tobey Maguire hasn't done anything significant since Spiderman. He definitely is a talented actor and I for one would like to see him in more films. As for Robert Downey Jr.
, he is as eccentric as always and steals every scene that he is in. Wonder Boys deserves your time and attention and in return, you will have seen a thought provoking film that leaves you wondering about the choices you have yet to make in your own life.
