Bad Day to Go Fishing (Alvaro Brechner)
** - This is a strange little Uruguayan film about a con artist and a washed up
body-builder/wrestler who go around small towns in South America for shows and
fights. For a film about a wrestler, there's surprisingly very little wrestling.
The film is well-made and the performances are good but the tone is all over the
place resulting in a film that's kind of a headscratcher for me.
The Rebound (Bart Freundlich) *1/2 - This romantic-comedy, despite starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Justin Bartha, never really got a wide U.S. release. You can definitely see why. It's about a newly-divorced 40-year-old mom who has an affair with her 25-year-old babysitter. The film, despite the valiant efforts of its cast, fall mostly flat. Bartha and Zeta-Jones have zero chemistry and fails to be about anything about anyone.
