John Leguizamo's Performance

Rating: 9/10 (14 June 2008)

I felt John Leguizamo's performance was the stand-out performance in the film. The line where he tells Zooey Deschanel "Don't hold my daughter's hand unless you mean it" was so powerful and every scene he was in, every line he delivered was filled to the brim with emotion. He's such an incredible actor.
As for the rest of the film, I enjoyed it very much. I thought the characters and storyline had a lot of heart and while I can see where people would criticize the dialogue, I think it personified the quirky characters Mark Wahlberg and Zooey Deschanel were portraying.
And that old woman!! So creepy!
