About this movie

Clive Owen shines in this irresistible comedy as Walt, a down-on-his luck carpenter tasked with entertaining his eight-year-old son Anthony while Anthony's mom (Maria Bello) and her new husband are away. But when Walt's prized toolbox is stolen, a quiet father-and-son weekend turns into an adventure of a lifetime. Aided by an oddball drywall repairman (Patton Oswalt), Walt and Anthony go on a wildly funny search for the thieves—and find something they never imagined: a true family connection.

Not the part for Clive Owen! He played the part better in Derailed & The Boys Are Back (drama genre). In addition, the plot wasn't all that great

Comedy? A few laughs. Emphasis on 'few'. Fairly predictable. Seemed longer than it really was. (You can guess why.) Would have made a better TV show.

Be forewarned it's seemingly a 'comedy' in the looses sense of the word ... Kinda like "august : osage county" was a comedy (like not AT ALL .. like is it comedy or tragedy ; but then wouldn't they be telegraphing the ending? ) but i reckon will see..
