So I recently watched Men, Women and Children and I'm here to bring you my review. So without further ado...
The follows the story of a group of high school teenagers and their parents as they attempt to navigate the many ways the internet has changed their relationships, their communication, their self-image, and their love lives.
I thought this film was a little disappointing. I say that because of director Jason Reitman who is one of the most talented young directors in the business today, but he over thinks and makes this film just a little more complicated then it should be. The film was written by Reitman and Erin Cressida Wilson and they both just find a cohesiveness to make the story flow smoothly. I will say that the concept of the film is really interesting because it takes a current issue in today's society and really tries to put it into perspective. I will say that the ensemble cast (which includes Jennifer Garner, Adam Sandler, J,K. Simmons, Ansel Elgort and Dean Norris) does the best job possible with a pretty dull and boring script. Overall the film had potential and tackles a modern day issue , but it ends up being overly long and boring. I give Men, Women & Children a 5 out of 10.
So ladies and gentlemen what did you think of Men, Women & Children, what would you rate it and what did you think of my review? Let me know in the comments section below and let your voice be heard.
