*** out of **** "Win Win" is a nice, gentle drama; and I needed that on this particular movie night. It isn't loud, it isn't insulting, and it's actually pretty good at what it does. I suppose I was drawn to it by its cast, but I got out of it much more than just a few performances. I actually invested quite a bit into it. Basically, it takes a perfectly normal story full of perfectly normal people, and engages us through both sympathy and the performances alone. There is … more

If you missed this one in theatres, you probably aren't alone. I had never heard of it either when we found it on our cable providers on-demand list of new releases, and were sold by the trailer. This is the kind of quiet movie made for and by adults that gets overlooked in the multi-screen megaplexes--no franchise, no remake, no graphic novel hero, no 3-D action hook means no 15-24 ticket sales means no screens available--a sad commentary on the current state of cinema which we … more

Desperate for money to support his wife Jackie (Amy Ryan) and two children, Mike becomes … more

WIN WIN Written and Directed by Thomas McCarthy Starring Paul Giamatti, Amy Ryan, Bobby Cannavale and Alex Shaffer Abby: Where’s Daddy? Jackie: He’s running. Abby: From what? Thomas McCarthy’s latest film, WIN WIN, is a little movie about regular people in a small town. McCarthy is no stranger to championing the stories of the every man (perhaps best exemplified in his … more

'Win Win' directed by Tom McCarthy (The Station Agent & The Visitor) explores the depths and nuances of human relationships and shows us that in certain circumstances, even the most unlikely of characters can form a bond that will last a lifetime. Attorney Mike Flaherty (Paul Giamatti) is your typical Everyman. He has a loving wife Jackie ( brilliant Amy Ryan) and two small kids who adore him. The only thing Mike loves almost as much … more
