Gets a sentimental grip on his flawed character.July 02, 2015
If Manglehorn is to be remembered at all, it shall be for the excruciating first date that its title character goes on with a chirpy bank clerk he has long been chatting up.July 02, 2015
This is definitely a lonely-man-talking-to-his-cat movie.July 16, 2015
At least we get Pacino and Hunter. We may not understand why this story appealed to them, except for the fact that it gave them a chance to work together.June 25, 2015
I spent most of the movie admiring Pacino's discipline in the role instead of believing he was the character.March 07, 2016
Even set against this chequered history, Manglehorn is an extremely odd picture.February 26, 2016
Manglehorn is an intriguing film, or at least it should have been. David Gordon Green's latest is unfortunatel y passive, there might be depths to explore on a second or third watch, but I struggled to make it through the first.March 20, 2016
