#89 - Jeff, Who Lives at Home (2011)

Jeff, Who Lives at Home (2011), Jay and Mark Duplass
2.5/5

This is a pretty average film by the Duplass brothers. The near constant moving camera is more distracting than artistic. The cast is strong, but the characters aren't that interesting or deep, a fault of the writing. The characters fall flat and are irritating and unlikeable. Also the moments that are supposed to feel poignant and meaningful fall short. The story is quirky, and cute, but rather light on content and plays to the melodramatic of themes about "fate" and the meaning of life. Overall a light film with not much intrigue or depth of interest, but good performances and some funny moments.
