solitary man

I started watching this at the Angelika in NY in May and just finished it on my computer in San Diego, so something may have been lost along the way. Michael Douglas excellently portrayed a sleazeball with a good reason, Susan Sarandon was charming as always, Jessie Eisenberg strayed not one iota from the character he always plays, and Mary Louise Parker took her Weeds character to the big screen. It just didn't add up to anything emotionally striking. By the end, I was bored.
