| 07.11.15 | Netflix | Strong vibe of Ben Stiller's Secret Life of Walter Mitty here except it's Simon Pegg and it's China, Tibet, Africa, and Los Angeles instead of Iceland. And it's a bit more heavy I guess... and there's lots of philosophical thoughts on happiness... and writing on the screen like it's a notebook or something. OK so it's probably not that similar to Ben Stiller's movie at all other than that a mild-mannered guy goes on a journey and finds himself. I liked it well enough. I feel like if I were in a different mood, perhaps one or two shades more cynical, i wouldn't have bought in and i'd find the movie pretty smug, but whatever... I wasn't in that mood so I did buy in and enjoyed tagging along on the journey |
