Smart People (2008)

I'd watch the sequel - no one ever admits that!
7 January 2022
PLEASE WATCH THIS and respond to my review because I don't know what to do! There is so much potential but what's the point?!?! I first saw this around ten years ago thinking, "Wow! What a cast! SJP! Ellen Page! ?-?-?-Church, even Dennis Quaid can recover from The Parent Trap - an ensemble cast? Sure!" Over a decade later in January 2022, I'm left wondering how many times the word "retard" - yes, in many contexts - is used and how sexual/gender confusion fits into whatever this haphazard plot and wannabe ensemble cast are even doing on a screen together. If the message is that life is messy, then I think that's accomplished simply by the messy script and sloppy ensemble. At the ending, when secrets and what-the-hells are revealed and people changed, I can say that for the first time EVER that I would really like to see the sequel to this movie! I've never thought that before!!! I at least admitted it! Hahahah!!! Perhaps a sequel would be worthwhile for maybe the third (?) time in the history of film 😆 Again, someone help me figure out this movie!
