The Weather Man

THE WEATHER MAN (2005) - Apr. 5, 2009
A really well made character study about a depressed weatherman, and his struggles to reconnect with his family and find meaning in his life. Gore Virbinksi's direction suits the material perfectly, and Nicolas Cage gives a surprisingly good performance -- it's a really understated performance, and Cage does a great job of conveying the character's inner-conflict without any of the over-the-top theatrics that he's been tending to fall back on recently. ***1/2
