It's rare that I don't finish a movie that I start watching, but I made an exception here.

Spätestens mit Greenberg ist mir klargeworden, was offensichtlich ist: Noah Baumbach gehört zu den Filmemachern, die einen zynischen Blick auf die Menschen werfen. Roger Greenberg ist ein Zyniker. Es war mir auch nie bewusst, welchen Typus der Komiker Ben Stiller am besten verkörpern könnte. Nun weiss ich es! Irgendwann einmal war Greenberg Mitglied einer Rockband, die kurz vorm Durchbruch stand. Durch seine Schuld kam es nie dazu. Er verliess L.A. und lebte wie ein Vertriebener in New York. Nun aber kehrt er …

Well, I had pretty high expectations for this movie. I heard a lot of hype surrounding Ben Stiller's surpisingly serious performance and around the film itself. I rented it and...well....the movie was really just ok. Stiller's absolutely fantastic in the title role. However, the character is completely unlikable and the film itself is awkward and kinda depressing. Heck, I had a big problem with the characters in the movie. I watched it and thought to myself "Why do they hang out let alone even put up with this guy?" They just came off as very dumb people.
