I've finally seen it

Rating: 7/10 (11 May 2011)

I liked the beginning of the movie the best. I really could empathize for Benjamin in his position and even making some of his decisions. However, his boyish charm and comic discomfort, in my opinion go flying out the window about halfway through the movie. He gets kind of creepy, and one of the reasons I think that may be is that they didn't develop Ben's relationship with the daughter enough. It looked like they went on one date (that started with a strip club visit), all of a sudden they're in love, then they break up, but he follows her, gets an apartment and stalks her. Come on... kind of creepy right? His landlord could sense it too. Oh, and I like Paul Simon as much as the next guy, but that was overkill.
