This film has lots of interesting premises and a great cast, which should have, in my opinion, added up to a lot more entertaining movie. It's greatest fault seems to be that it can't decide if it really wants to be funny or if it wants to be heartwarming. Instead, it is only occasionally amusing, and when it wanders into absurdity, which in a funnier movie could work magic, it just seems to be content with a few semi-philosophical half-baked platitudes. Overall, the story isn't that credible or interesting.
The actors are all really good in their roles, so I'm assuming the biggest fault is the slightness of the story and/or the slow packing of the direction. Not a bad movie, just a waste of time and talent.
