Movie Review: Win-Win.
Starring: Paul Giamatti, Amy Ryan, Bobby Cannavale, Jeffrey Tambor, Burt Young, and introducing Alex Shaffer.
Story: A struggling lawyer and volunteer wrestling coach's chicanery comes back to haunt him when the teenage grandson of the client he's double-crossed comes into his life.
Review: Its a good story of deciding what is right and getting second chances. The goal is to make life a win-win for everyone. But, as you can imagine, things don't go as planned. And, when things get hairy, previous partial truths and lies come forward and people don't know who to trust.
It is a slow moving movie, but keeps going enough to not lose your interest. It is definitely an independent movie. It has charm and the acting is well done. Giamatti and Ryan are professionals and it shows. The newcomers do well, too.
It has plenty of fun in it, but is mostly a drama. I won't tell you how it ends and won't ruin the ending for you. But, you will not be disappointed. It is rated (R) for the language. No violence and No nudity.
Movie Grade: 4 of 5 Stars / B+
