Totally loses narrative steam in the last half hour. The character interactions lacked the urgency and punch of the earlier scenes. I also HATED the transitions. But it wasn't bad, just disappointing considering Baumbach's last two movies were some of his better ones.

Why are you using literary terms to describe a film?
Robert Carter
It's an incredibly dialogue and character-driven movie and the title itself evokes a literary feeling. Hell, the movie is broken into chapters.
Samuel Bennett
Any funny jokes? Dance number? Rob Schneider?
Eli Foster
there's a Sigorney Weaver cameo!
Aaron Allen
Why would you willingly watch that? The name Baubach sounds like hipstershit
Nathan Foster
Because I think he's a more talented and less saccharine Wes Anderson.
Isaac Reed
wow
Michael Morgan
It’s like a shitty version of royal tennenbUms with Jews
Liam Richardson
the Tenanbaums weren't jews?
Mason Young
Howard Hawks, Leo McCarey, Preston Sturges, and Ernst Lubitsch are better
Nolan Long
a literal nothing movie

Hilariously awful. Her dad's reactions to it were hilarious. You could tell he hated it but his liberal sensibilities stopped him from voicing his opinions.
Luke Perez
Haven't watched it yet. How did Adam Sandler do?

Bentley Martinez
He was fine, played his appropriately whiny loser character adequately, though he had a couple moments of reverting to his ANGRY SHOUTING schtick. I thought Stiller and Hoffman were considerably better.

>dime-a-dozen That's rich coming from someone that loves Baumbach
William Perry
"love"? Never once said I loved Baumbach or even liked him. Just that he was better than Wes Anderson.

>The Meyerowitz Stories is rooted in New York–Hollywood greed, arrogance, and egocentricity
>the Meyerowitz surname stands for particular family traits of bickering and covetousness
>the Meyerowitz Stories exposes critics’ assumption that depravity is part of their cultural mandate
>like Harvey Weinstein, Sandler’s Danny epitomizes a self-serving weakness... >the inescapable misery of tribal vanity.
>The critical constabulary ... scared of having to look inside only to be repulsed at seeing their own classist, racist, tribal mediocrity.

I fucking hate Super12. Grainy as fuck and the coloring is weird .
Sandler is a terrific loser, he's a real cringefest. the real highlight.
The Van Patten girl is really hot, those tits.
Noah's love affair with Stiller is bizarre. He brings the best out of him but why even bother, he's so emotionless.
The autistic sister was bang on.
i really liked the pacing, it stretched the standard narrative past breaking point till the characters had no choice but to say, fuck this and want out.
