The good news about this movie is that it is an excellent character study. I can't remember the last time that I saw a character as interesting as Greenberg, and still gives a fantastically nuanced performance. Gerwig does her best Gerwig in that she excels playing the quirky girl-next-door type. That's enough to make the movie watchable. follow me at https://IHATEBadMovies.com or facebook I HATEBadMovies

A character drama from writer/director Noah Baumbach, Greenberg explores some interesting issues but ultimately falls flat. When Roger Greenberg comes to L.A. to housesit for his brother he ends up getting involved with the housekeeper, but his fears and anxieties begin to cause problems between them. Ben Stiller, Greta Gerwig, Rhys Ifans, and Jennifer Jason Leigh lead the cast and give strong performances; particularly Gerwig, who has a nice charm and a natural comedic sensibility. However, the plot meanders a lot and is full of minutia. And Greenberg is a rather perfunctory character, leaving the audience ambiguous to his plight. Flawed and disjointed, Greenberg is an overly monotonous slice of life film.

>"Hurt people hurt people." There is something about this movie that irritates me, but at the same time I found myself wanting Ben Stiller to find peace. Also, more movies need Greta Gerwig.

A neurotic, self-obsessed New Yorker (Ben Stiller) goes to house sit for his brother in L.A., and strikes up a relationship with his assistant (Greta Gerwig). Greenberg leans heavily on its two leads and they are more than up to the task. Stiller has shown he has some acting chops in the past but after Night at the Museum 3 and Little Fockers this is an easily forgotten fact. Here he inhabits a loathsome character yet makes us still root for him. It’s probably nothing new but it’s still a difficult trick to pull off. Gerwig’s work is just as effective. She seems to breeze through life, care free, yet gives off an undercurrent of sadness. The two sort-of fall for each other despite Greenberg’s best attempts to wreck the relationship. There are only so many films you can take about narcissistic, well-to-do white people in one sitting, and Greenberg definitely falls into that category. However, it’s also a gently amusing and emotional character study. On a bad day I’d be a lot harsher on it but for whatever reason this one struck a chord with me. http://benoliver999.com/film/2016/05/08/greenberg/

I'm all for films about interesting people. But when the film fails to be interesting itself, it doesn't really serve its purpose.

In short, Roger (Ben Stiller) is a failed musician who spends most of his time up his own ass, but has agreed to house-sit at his brother's house while t More

Horribly boring watch, won't watch again, and can't recommend.

This is just a lot of nothing happening. Part of the movie is literally just a guy house-sitting, there are literally multiple scenes of characters just being bored.

Alternatively it's scenes of a guy having moments of lucidity su More
