> When we won’t feel a thing for a great loss…

I am observing closely Jake Gyllenhaal’s acting career and he’s giving the best performances in all his films. He’s one of top 5 best actor of our generation. So technically I love all his films, especially in the recent years and tell me who won’t if they love good stories and performance. I expected this to be another excellent film and yes it was, but not that great.

What he has given to his fans and film viewers is the promise and fulfilled it all the way. So even an average film can automatically become a better one. This film was based on the one of the blacklisted script, but Gyllenhaal’s presence made all the difference along with the wonderful director.

It was the story of a man who lost his wife in a car accident. His way of grieving is what the film narrates. He realises that he’s not able feel a thing when everyone around does, so he decides to make search for the answers and so the bizarre journey begins. The casting was good, but it was all about the Gyllenhaal’s role. I like Naomi Watts, but for the first time she looked old to me. And the others did not have much screenspace, except that new face boy who was decent.

I think not everyone would enjoy it, it is a weird story of almost a weird person, so you would easily get it. You must need to be a patience, besides it is a dark comedy. You might wonder why the title was named ‘Demolition’, the films gives a strange demonstration for that in a good way. It is not like a must see, but totally worth for Gyllenhaal alone. I can’t say it should have been better, because there’s nothing to get better, everything was at its best.

7/10

Early on in Demolition there is a brief but interesting scene. Davis Mitchell (Jake Gyllenhaal) is looking in a mirror, crying the way bad actors do – i.e., contorting the face to compensate for the inability to produce tears.

Gyllenhaal is of course far from a bad actor, and sure enough, Davis immediately regains his composure. Was he rehearsing? Quite possibly, especially when you consider that he seems more concerned with the faulty vending machine in the hospital hallway than the fact that his wife Julia (Heather Lind) has just died in a car accident.

But Davis is not a heartless bastard; he simply finds it easier to depend on the kindness of strangers. For example, the letter he writes to the vending machine company, which quickly becomes a confessional epistle, and gives us a clue to his impassive reaction to Julia’s death.

In contrast, Davis is unable to relate to Phil Eastwood (Chris Cooper), Julia’s father. As usual, Cooper delivers the goods, in particular an emotional speech about how there is no word – such as ‘orphan’ or ‘widower’ – to describe someone who has lost a child.

Ironically, while we’ve been fascinated by Cooper’s craft, Davis’s mind has been wandering, trying to discern why the drinks are so expensive at the restaurant where they’re at, without taking the slightest notice of a single word his father-in-law has said.

Meanwhile, the letters he will continue to write to the vending machine company customer service department become his main outlet. In a delightful plot twist, Karen Moreno (Naomi Watts), the company’s only customer service rep, has been moved to tears by Davis’s missives, and begins talking to him on the phone.

Davis is certainly an intriguing character, and to develop him Gyllenhaal has borrowed from others as well as himself. Davis is outwardly a vain, aloof yuppie like Christian Bale in American Psycho – although instead of dismembering people, he takes apart machines, not bothering to put them back together again.

At the same time, he undergoes an inner transformation that is a combination of Kevin Spacey’s in American Beauty and Ron Livingston’s in Office Space. Also, Davis becomes the opposite of Gyllenhaal’s character in Moonlight Mile.

Unfortunately, Demolition loses momentum in the second half, with director Jean-Marc Vallée putting the plot on autopilot. Davis and Karen’s relationship is perfect when limited to letters and phone calls, but goes awry as soon as they meet in person. Additionally, and completely out of the clear blue sky, Davis is diagnosed with a rare medical condition that results in part of his heart being apparently eaten by “gypsy moths.” The hell?.

All things considered, Demolition feels familiar, and we can recognize elements we’ve seen elsewhere, but while some of it is clichéd, the outside-the-box use of some of those familiar elements is in itself refreshing; furthermore, Gyllenhaal provides another stellar performance.

good picture, solid message and strong performances
We must destroy in order to rebuild: the message of the picture is clear, I would say very physically clear, since there’s much physical destruction, and I found it a very empathetically convincing message, since who has never felt like destroying a place, just to get rid of the past, of something we hate or no longer stand?

The story develops with a steady and quick pace, but is also intertwined by dreamy moments, which soften the overall realistic attitude of the movie. The incisive soundtrack is also wisely chosen to give more value to some emotionally intense moments or to enliven the atmosphere. The cast does a great job, Jake Gyllenhall truly inhabits his difficult and at times incomprehensible character, and is worthily supported by a never disappointing Naomi Watts, and the little boy offers a good performance, too.

On the whole an enjoyable and also thought provoking picture, which leaves much to think about what could lie beneath the ruins if we had the courage to deconstruct the more or less frail scaffold of our existence.

“Nobody wants a Carousel today. They want a roller coaster to turn you upside down and make you puke!”
And that’s about what I did at the end of this roller coaster movie.

So many reviews here obsess on the supposed “grief” or “grieving process” Davis Mitchell is going through due to the death of his wife. Really? Did they actually watch the movie?

Davis becomes self possessed and is rebelling against the decision he made to marry the “rich girl’ Julia! That’s what this movie is about – self indulgence & rebelling – not grieving! Davis even tells Karen he married Julia because “it was convenient” in other words he sold himself out. He grew-up in an economic level that was equal to Karen’s current life style. Therefore he connected with her and her son so easily.

Davis’s path of destruction is his effort to disconnect from the demanding lifestyle he was expected to live with his rich wife Julia and her very wealthy parents. His father-in-law Phil gives Davis a very nice job in his investment firm even after he told Davis he did not like him. We are lead to believe that Phil learns to like Davis but it is obvious both of them only tolerated one another. Phil accepted Davis only because he made a lot of money for the investment firm and his daughter married him!

Davis only achieves demolishing his relationship with his co-workers, his in-laws, and his own possessions! Then out of the blue he learns ‘the big secret’ and decides to be a thoughtful former son-in-law. While visiting the grave of his wife he learns another lesson about how wrong he was about everything! At movies end Director: Jean-Marc Vallée throws in a rather surreal Disney like sweetness to close out this flop of a movie.

Almost two hours of movie about this fool and my last thought was WTF!
