Director: Jay Duplass/Mark Duplass
Country: US
Released: 2010
Starring: Marisa Tomei, Jonah Hill, John C. Reilly, Catherine Keener
“Middle-aged romance can be a dicey prospect. And it gets more complicated when children are in the picture. But it gets more complex still if the ‘child’ is actually 21, and creepily meddlesome... What makes this dark comedy work so well is the way in which directors Jay and Mark Duplass build an original story on a broad, even farcical, foundation and leaven it with nuance. It's an edgy, engrossing comedy... Amid the laughs, emotional truths loom large for each of its rather odd characters. The story centers on John, a sad sack whose ex-wife, Jamie, is soon to be remarried. John's life is a cringe-fest until he meets the warmhearted Molly.... Reilly and Tomei have credible chemistry, convincing us that these two damaged adults may actually have found their soul mates. But their romance runs into a rather sizable snag in the form of Molly's maladjusted son, Cyrus. Molly and Cyrus have an unusually close bond that gives new meaning to the term ‘mollycoddled.’ A rivalry between Cyrus and John is hilarious... Hill plays a very different character from his usual harmless geeks in Get Him to the Greek or Superbad. He nails Cyrus' sense of menace laced with brattiness, making this his best and most complex performance... The Duplass brothers fuse comedy, tragedy and discomfort... Above all, it deftly captures the ambiguity and absurdity of human relationships... Cyrus is an off-kilter charmer.” - Claudia Puig, The Washington Post. “Painfully funny farce... one of the best and most surprising movies of the year.” - Georgia Straight

Director: Lisa Cholodenko
Country: US
Released: 2010
Starring: Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo
Awards: Winner - Best Film, Berlin International Film Festival
“The story of a family that is both as unique and as ordinary as any other, Kids may sound like typically quirky arthouse fare. But this is a movie for everyone - and, in one way or another, about everyone, too. It really doesn't matter if you have two mothers, like California teens Joni and Laser. Or if you're an affluent, mildly new-age lesbian like their moms, Jules and Nic. What you'll recognize most about this clan is how they relate to each other, in each beautiful, comical, and painfully familiar way. Granted, their immediate issues are somewhat unconventional. When Joni and Laser decide to find their moms' sperm donor, they meet Paul, an easygoing, happily single restaurateur. Much to his surprise, he likes the idea of being a dad. But adding a new member to a tightly knit family turns out to be, well, just as complicated as you might expect. It's such a pleasure to watch actors and filmmakers working at the very top of their game... Every scene has its highlights, from amusing observations about sex to poignant truths about parenting and partnerships. But what you'll remember most is the exquisitely lovely final scene, in which Cholodenko reminds us that all we need is a single moment of perfection -in a family, or even in a film - to believe that somehow, things will always be all right.” - Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News

Director: Brian Koppelman/David Levien
Country: US
Released: 2010
Starring: Michael Douglas, Mary-Louise Parker, Susan Sarandon, Jesse Eisenberg, Danny DeVito
“Michael Douglas in one of his best performances, as a once rich and famous car dealer, now in hard times but still tireless as closing the hardest sell of all - himself. He's a seducer, a cheater, a user, but running outgo of options, in a smart comedy/drama with an excellent supporting cast.” - Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun-Times. “In contrast to the emotional inertia of the character he plays, a former big-wheel car dealer gunning toward self-destruction as he nears 60, Michael Douglas surges ahead in Solitary Man with the best work he's done in the decade since Wonder Boys. Douglas portrays Ben Kalmen, a New York player gone to seed and divorced from a good, mature woman (Susan Sarandon, equally revitalized). He's squandering the love of his adult daughter (Jenna Fischer, superb). And he's compulsively chasing inappropriate women ... With an outstanding screenplay a story that could have been generic turns into a precise, honest, and affecting drama. And recognizing the gift of such a character, Douglas does Ben Kalmen the honor of playing him exactly as he lies.” - Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
