Very likable

Rating: Null/10 (5 January 2012)

Win Win is a great little film with fantastic performances and a brilliant screenplay. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did, and in that respect it surprised me. As it goes along, I got really invested in these characters, and in the sharp comedic writing mixed with real biting drama. I was able to recognize Melanie Lynskey from her film Heavenly Creatures. Giamatti is a good lead, and Ryan and Cannavle both prove great supporting turns. Overall, this was a very good little film that never once failed to entertain and intrigue me. Expect serious awards consideration for the script, which is its best aspect. Definitely recommended.
