First-time director Ewan McGregor carefully picks apart the tapestry of Philip Roth's tale of an American life come undone, but he fails to successfully reassemble it on screen in a way that does justice to one of the most haunting novels ever written.

Wow, what a misfire. American Pastoral is unfortunately a miscalculation of a movie. The solid performances and the cinematography couldn't make this worth seeing for. It really sucks saying this since I like Ewan McGregor.

This film is a serious drama it will get you down and never to understand what is wrong with people when they have it all . Perfection comes at a high price never to be underestimated. Actors Dakota Fanning Jennifer Connelly and Ewan McGregor are superb in their roles . I have never been so depressed by watching a film but this drama work will keep you on your toes until the final conclusion , in that sense the film does its purpose and don't think I can watch it again the pain is beyond description so it is life without the glamour and glamorous characters telling the story .
