Average Stuff….
Shari Springer Berman & Robert Pulcini’s ‘The Extra Man’ is average stuff… that had the potential to come out as a pure gem. But, the writing is weak, especially in the final 30-minutes.‘The Extra Man’, based on a novel, tells the story of a failed playwright, who develops an odd mentor relationship with a Louis Ives, a troubled, cross-dressing, aspiring writer to whom, he sublets a room in his New York apartment.
The idea, is fairly interesting, and it does hit the right points in the beginning. But, after a point, the writing begins to lose. The pace suddenly dips, and even the culmination comes out bland. Shari Springer Berman & Robert Pulcini’s adapted screenplay is flawed. Their direction is just about okay.
Performance-Wise: Kevin Kline is damn good. He is the life of the show. Paul Dano does reasonably well, while John C. Reilly sports a hideous get-up. Katie Holmes is alright. Alicia Goranson is fair.
On the whole, an average effort, that had great potential, but sadly, gets wasted due to weak writing. Watch it if you must!
refreshing laugh
i saw this movie because I am a John C Reilly fan, however, much to my chagrin, even with his minor role, this gave me many genuine deep “what the f%$#” laughs. I also like Paul Dano and think he really played this character well. His look of horror at his woman self was priceless, especially when he had to dodge flying Christmas ornaments from harry.it was quirky yet boldly in-touch and the humor spoke to me. It was a movie that I watched by myself on a lonely night and it certainly took me out of my head.
this is the only movie I have ever watched that I was motivated to write the review for.
