Review of The Judge

So this looks amazing which is unusual given that the director hasn't made a many movies I enjoyed yet. Brownie points though for having such a stellar cast brought together. I swear Robert Downey Jr. is an amazing actor, but he tends to play jerks in most of his films. It's always kind of funny in a way when you watch dysfunctional families on-screen dealing with each other. In the real world though it's really actually kind of sad. It's good to see Robert Duvall in something again after not really doing much for awhile. He just shows how phenomenal he still is. In fact all of the acting is just as superb as should be expected. I loved each and every single character. It has it's funny moments, but otherwise it's a pretty serious movie. There are a few good twists I wasn't expecting to see. It's a very touching and emotional story. It definitely hits home when it comes to father son relationships. I don't know about everyone else, but it makes me wish I could spend more time with my father while I have the chance. I say it's a must see for sure.
