Incredible What a great film. B. J. Novak pulls triple duty and crushes it in every category. His writing and directing are top notch here, but he also turns in a wonderfully layered performance. Vengeance part crime thriller, part mystery, part revenge tale, but also laugh out loud funny - all while putting society, our perceptions and prejudices under the microscope.
Novak brings heart to so many scenes in the film, something underscored by the oft repeated line, "heart sees heart". You will also be surprised by the performance of Ashton Kutcher in his best role to date. He is understated and focused, and I hope this will lead to a new direction in his career.
Highly recommend this. Original and a film studios aren't making much anymore.
