New Release Tuesday: Being Flynn (2012)
Being Flynn
Not bad of a movie.
I expected a sappy drama but the first
half was entertaining.
Didn't know this was somewhat based on a true story.
I enjoyed the story.
Robert DeNiro did good playing a grouchy distant father
who abandoned his son when he was very little
and claiming to be a good writer.
Kudos for the Robert DeNiro's character working as a Taxi Driver
in the first half of the movie. Get it? Taxi Driver.
Paul Dano, does his usual performance.
Lots of homeless people.
This would make a decent double feature
with Resurrecting the Champ. Both movies
share some qualities but way different stories.
It was okay to see this movie. Maybe not to buy.
