Have not seen this movie. I was wondering how much is Paul in the movie? I don't really want to buy this movie if his part is not that big. So I thought I would ask here for someone who has seen it. Thanks in advance.
shareNot sure if you've already invested in the DVD but just in case, Paul Rudd doesn't have a very big part in the film, he is one of the main supporting characters but he doesn't get much screen time, so I wouldn't buy it just for him (the film is 2 hours long). But it's a very unusual part for him, I didn't actually recognize him straight away in his first scene, and if you have any other reason to watch the movie, it's worth seeing him in it.
However if you have any love for Vince Vaughn at all, you should absolutely watch it. He gives an intense dramatic performance (which makes you really wish he hadn't gone and got lost in all these ever dumber frat pack comedies) channelling equal parts Paul Newman and Marlon Brando... It's a movie made like a 50s movie really, cinematography, clichés, sentiments and all, so if that doesn't deter you, do give it a go!
Thanks very much for replying to me. I am more a Paul Rudd fan, but I do like Vince Vaughn acting. I have really only seen his movies from 2004 on. So even with being more of a Paul Rudd fan do you think I would like this, because I do like Vince's acting. I don't know much about his earlier works. Who does Paul have the most scenes with,having very little screen time? Would it be worth it if I found it on Amazon for like 2 or 3 dollars? Thank you very much again!
shareI think every scene PR is in is with Vince Vaughn and/or Jessica Capshaw, from what I can remember... If you find it for very cheap, give it a try, but it's a rather particular film, so maybe don't invest too much in it before being sure. Vaughn's earlier films were pretty good, he did some good drama, like "Return to paradise", or "A cool dry place" even, if you like that sort of family comedy-drama.
shareI didn't even recognize Paul Rudd in this film.
