This is the second time Paul Schrader has helmed one of the Banks' novel for the screen, following its adaptation Affliction (1997) With a great cast like Richard Gere, Uma Thurman and Michael Imperioli, you’d think you’d have the power to make a better movie than this one.

I can’t imagine it would be better if you could pause and leave the room to do more important things than watch this sad excuse for a movie.
