And its good, it deserves to be seen. It felt a little long despite running for a little less than two hours. RDJ is good as ever, he does the comedic parts of the role really well but his performance shows how much he becomes to care for Foxx's character. Catherine Keener is good but has a minor role and its difficult to argue with what Foxx does with the role of Ayers, how do you act as a mentally ill man?

I think Joe Wright makes another claim as one of the most exciting up and coming directors, this film really shows he has such a great vision of how he wants his films to look and he really captures LA in an interesting way (especially as an outsider/non American).

The music in the film is superb and beautiful. If you think you might be interested in the film, you should probably give it a try and go see it.
