Movie Name: Everything Must Go
Language: English
Genre: Drama, Slice of Life
I generally find Will Ferrell movies funny. I started watching this movie due to Will only without looking for reviews of the movie. I lost interest in the first twenty minutes, yet somehow I completed the movie. I did not like it much because the subject matter was not treated properly.
The story revolves around a senior sales person, portrayed by Will, who is fired after 16 years of service due to his alcoholism. His wife deserts him on the same day. So he is alone without money, car, job or family at his lawn in front of his own house which is locked by his wife. The story deals with how he makes acquaintances with some neighbors and moves forward in his life. The impact of alcohol on his life is depicted in length but the journey back towards a fulfilling life is not shown. The movies leaves the viewer wondering about many points; in some sense it is an open ended climax :-)
Will has done great as the man suffering from acute drinking problem. He loses everything without realizing that it was his fault only which made the condition so bad. There are not many characters in the movie. The pace is bit slow and movie seems dragging without much development of the plot. Nothing less is worth mentioning. It is not a great way to pass time if you are not into drinking ;-)
My ratings are 2.5/5.0
