Existential Crisis

Rating: 9/10 (1 February 2015)

An aging actor, played by Michael Keaton, tries to sort his priorities out. His struggle with a multitude of things ongoing forms the core of the movie. Every character in the movie is so well etched that each has a struggle of its own that it is trying to deal with. Whether it is the people to deal with or careers or themselves, the fight is very evident. Each is in his/her own rat race to some place that they don't even know of. Ed Norton plays the perfect foil to Keaton in the movie. Lastly, this movie is not just about actors or Broadway or Hollywood or the critics. This is about life, mine and yours, what we seek from it, and whether we appreciate what we have found or we still keep looking for something else. Whether we pause and reflect on our lives or does somebody needs to stop us to get a reality check. This movie, is the reality check!
