3-Iron

Points for originality (although it reminded me a lot of Vive L’Amour, that’s not really a fair comparison). The problem is that the film doesn’t really inspire much of anything in me. I cared about the wife somewhat but not the drifter guy. The no-talking thing is perhaps clever, but makes it harder for the viewer to sympathize, especially when the lead character is a bit too smug. Things take a turn for the better at the end, but it’s too little too late and fails to make up for the tedium of the first act or the ridiculousness of the second. Rating: 6
