Jesse Eisenberg previously made When You Done Saving the World; it was interesting, but unfortunately a bit boring. Eisenberg’s direction and writing of this film shows much improvement, with many interesting and engaging characters, good dialogue, and great performances, especially from Kieran Culkin who steals the show throughout the film.

It included beautiful camerawork, a good soundtrack, and conversations that felt real, genuine, and engaging to watch

The story explores family history and complex relationships, as each theme and exploration was well explored and was fun, emotional, and compelling to watch. Eisenberg’s approach to chemistry, structure, and pacing was good, as he created a personal and compelling story about family history and the true meanings of bonds and relationships.

There were a few soundtrack choices that felt a little out of place

But overall, Eisenberg has improved, and I look forward to seeing what else he has to offer today. Check out the full lineup for the 62nd New York Film Festival this fall.
