Review of Foxcatcher

I saw the trailer for this awhile back. I was so intrigued I read a little about the story that this is based on. I just got out of the theater I work at after seeing it and was greatly impressed. Not only is the acting superb, but I think this is a game changer for Steve Carell and Channing Tatum. John du Pont made me feel uneasy throughout the entire film as he is just an extremely awkward and strange person. Steve Carell did amazing and he is far from type here although there are a few scenes were his roots in comedy make a slight shimmer. This has to be Channing Tatum's best performance of all time. Mark Ruffalo as usual shined in all of his scenes as well and really made you like David Schultz. I knew what was coming in the end, but I was still caught off guard by what actually happened. Bennett Miller hasn't directed many films, but when he does he makes sure that they are quite memorable. I see Oscar nominees for the whole shebang here. It's definitely worth checking out.
