…the protags are essentially blank slates, despite the
skill and charm Krasinski and Rudolph bring to the roles. It’s their
job simply to represent “normal” against so many illustrations of bad
parenting, worse marriages and damaged adulthood. But given they’re
such harmlessly pleasant folk, why don’t they have any non-messed-up
friends?
Because that would un-stack the deck in a script that needs to paint
them as two lonely souls in a hostile world. But in positing normal as
special, the pic requires caricaturing almost everyone else.
While handled by resourceful actors, the foibles of the supporting
characters are less funny than they are forced and unpleasant. Janney
and Gyllenhaal in particular play figures venomously conceived.
Meant to amp up the pic’s indie-quirky cred, the soundtrack, papered
with lyrically trite soundalike cuts by Scottish singer-songwriter
Alexi Murdoch, instead makes progress seem more meandering and
monotonous. Other design/tech contributions are solid. Still, this
alternately condescending and hazy material doesn’t trigger the kind of
sharp aesthetic choices Mendes and collaborators made in response to
past projects from “American Beauty” to “Revolutionary Road.”
