RE: Age Gaps and Bad Movies

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

When I saw the title of your post, the first movie that came to my mind was The Idea of You, and truth be told I am currently watching Family Affair. I guess I will have to skip Man Up since it seems the storyline is quite similar.

I do not have much to say about Family Affair because I am yet to finish it but the few scenes I have seen felt like they were trying to portray the struggles of a good writer who hasn't written for a few years.

And I was hoping the trailer I saw about their relationship would turn out to be that Nicole Kidman was able to find her writing spirit again by writing about her adventure with Zac Efron. Judging from your review I am guessing that wasn't the case

I once suffered from writer’s block, but once it was over, writing became easier again. It lasted for a few months. I hope you never face writer’s block in your life; it’s a difficult phase. I ended up deleting most of my drafts without publishing them.

I've seen the movie myself. Well, most of it, I left in the last 10 minutes. The writing thing seems to be secondary to the writer finding a life and companionship again while the actor finds someone to fill a void in his life. The bad script in need of a good writer seems secondary to the plot.
