STARTING OUT IN THE EVENING (2007) - Sept. 9, 2007
A disappointment. Frank Langella is literally the best thing about this movie, as he gives a really good performance and proves that he should certainly be getting more work than he does. His performance is far better than the movie actually deserves, as it is otherwise unspectacular and egregiously overlong (it particularly drags towards the end). The whole thing just seems trite and somewhat cheesy, particularly the whole subplot with Lili Taylor as Langella's daughter. Oh well. At least, during the slower stretches, I had a chance to think about how good Boy A was. **
