movie review: The Rewrite

So, to be fair, I fast-forwarded through a lot of this movie. Enough to get an hour and forty-seven minute movie down to about an hour and fifteen minutes.

My reactions:

1. Hugh Grant’s character in this movie is an enormous asshole. I found it difficult to build any kind of sympathy or positive feeling for him as he made the *difficult personal journey* towards gaining… just, like, a basic level of human decency and being a contributing member of a community?

2. I think this movie would have been 8000% better if it had been about his agent instead.

3. Somehow, in the midst of all that, there actually were some things I really liked about writing and story-telling.
