I'm happy to report that De Niro hasn't lost his chops. At least not quite.

It's a shame the studio didn't choose to keep the original title of the book in place, Another Bulls**t Night in Suck City would have been quite fitting for the film.

Weitz digs diligently for emotional truths and makes the most of his excellent cast.

Heads downward in every sense of the word.

It's been ages since De Niro tackled a character as rich and challenging as this, and he tackles it head-on.

I'm still not sure what this is all supposed to be about, save for a bunch of scenes that happened to somebody, sometime.
