Sure AL Pacino gave a good performance in it, up to the standards that the trailers and advertisements said it would be, but Pacino recently did a movie called Danny Collins where he showed the same charisma that you see in this movie, and Danny Collins was a far better movie.
If The filmmaker was trying to make point I did not really get it. Pacino plays the title charter, a grumpy old man who can't get over the women he let get away which is making his current relationships with people miserable. He has more connection with his sickly cat than he has with his own son.
Though Pacino did play one of the most interesting grumpy old men I've seen since Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino, the movie does not stick with you. I got no feeling from it. All I got was a butch of events that did not really effect me overall.
It's too bad too. I like Holly Hunter's supporting role as the odd love interest to Pacino, and Harmony Korine was fun to watch, but everything could have been laid out better. It just comes off stale altogether.
