#justin theroux

Another quick one, but this is a fairly dire adaptation. The book is like a grimy dirty story you can imagine taking place in some grey buildings under an even greyer English sky.

The film is just so wrong. Everyone is miscast and they’re all to perfect looking with their shiney American teeth and accents that don’t fit at all with how you’d imagine.

People have praised Emily Blunt’s performance, but I was not impressed. In fact, I think it was best summed up in a Tweet (which, regrettably I can’t find because the genius behind it deserves full recognition) that compared it to Dave after Dentist.

It’s always nice to gaze at Justin Theroux, but aside from that, avoid.
