A good movie

By now, I have actually managed to watch most of the movies starring Adam Sandler and I came to the conclusion that he must be one of the most underwhelming actors at work nowadays. The saddest thing with this actor is that, from time to time, he actually does try something else than his usual moronic comedies but those movies always turn out to be some massive flop and this movie was not an exception.  To be honest, I wasn't really sold by ‘Punch Drunk Love’ (I should definitely re-watch it at some point though) but this one was actually pretty good. Indeed, I must admit that Sandler was actually very good and so was Don Cheadle but that's not a surprise. I was also surprised by Liv Tyler who was quite convincing as a psychiatric. Still, it wasn't really a great movie because some parts of the story just didn't work really well. For example, the character played by Saffron Burrows was rather annoying, she didn't add much to the story and I thought it was rather unconvincing that a shrink will hook up 2 patients, still in therapy, to get romantically involved like this. Anyway, in spite of its flaws,  I thought it was a good movie with an interesting reflection on death and loss and I think it is definitely worth a look.
