Incredible Acting & Emotion Covers Up Almost All Faults
Based strictly on content, “Fathers & Daughters” is not the type of movie I would usually see. However, after watching the trailer and seeing the star power of Russell Crowe, Amanda Seyfried, and Aaron Paul, I decided to give it a try. While the plot of this film can be a bit shaky at times, one almost doesn’t realize it because the quality of the acting invokes such strong emotions all the way through.

For a basic plot summary, “Fathers & Daughters” opens with writer Jake Davis (Crowe) struggling to cope with his life after the loss of his wife in a car accident. Fortunately, he still has his lovely daughter Katie (Kylie Rogers), but even that is threatened when his seizures and medical problems begin. Flash-forward 20-some years later, and Katie (Seyfried) has grown up to become a successful social worker…who is also as promiscuous as they come in terms of love life. However, when a new little girl named Lucy (Quvenzhane Wallis) is put in her care, and then Katie meets Cameron (Paul), she begins to be confronted by the demons in her life that have caused her so much pain.

I wish I could say that “Fathers & Daughters” is a “best of all-time” type of movie, but the fact is that it isn’t. The writers/producers/director make some head-scratching choices about how they play the narrative out, and there are a few key plot points missing that probably needed to be included to make this a “tighter” film. So, this is really more of a “niche” film built on emotion.

But boy oh boy, though, does that niche ever get filled perfectly here! I’m not usually one to get overly emotional during a film-watching experience (at least visually), but “Fathers & Daughters” moved me to tears on a few occasions. It truly is that powerful of a film, as it deals primarily with the relationship between a father and daughter (something that isn’t always seen in these types of films). It would have been very, very easy for this film to turn into a typical tearjerker, as all the elements for it are indeed present. Fortunately, although not without a few hiccups along the way, it ends up producing natural instead of contrived emotions, which I have a great deal of respect for. All the emotional moments in the movie feel earned.

In large part, I believe that is due to the incredible acting performances in the flick. It has been awhile since I’ve seen a movie where every performance was this spot-on. Crowe really commits (and when that happens, he’s always golden), Seyfried is (as usual) perfect for her role, and Paul is absolutely killing every role he takes these days. Even the youngsters, Wallis and especially Rogers, bring the emotion perfectly.

So, while “Fathers & Daughters” may not rise to elite heights due to a few storytelling difficulties, it has more than enough acting and emotion to be a solid film. It uncommonly moved me during my viewing of it, and I will always remember the experience because of it. Even if this doesn’t look like your “cup of tea”, you may want to give it a chance, as more than likely you’ll be moved as well.

A great cast helps a movie that waffles between very good and something put on by Lifetime
I’d never even heard of this movie before catching it on TV the other night. I really enjoyed it too despite the fact that it waffles between very good and feeling like something put on by Lifetime. Excellent cast here, doing their best with scrambled directing and a lousy script which included; Russell Crowe, Amanda Seyfried, Aaron Paul, Bruce Greenwood, Diane Kruger and Jane Fonda. I’m actually left wondering with a cast this good why I’d never heard of it before?

The movie follows Russell Crowe as a Pulitzer-winning writer who grapples with being a widower and father after a mental breakdown while, 27 years later, his grown daughter struggles to forge connections of her own, trying to fill an emotional void by having one night stands with men she doesn’t care about. This plays out in flashbacks which are a little confusing at first but the performances are excellent even if the father/daughter relationship is laid on a bit thick.

I did find the whole custody battle storyline pretty lame and poorly done as well as a storyline we’ve all seen a thousand times before. What I did enjoy was the romance going on and inclusion of Aaron Paul. Amanda’s fear of abandonment and trouble opening her heart to love was well played as were the scenes between them. “I can’t love” in her own words. Russell did a good job too, his character was frantic, and sometimes his seizure scenes felt a bit melodramatic but he got my sympathies.

This movie had moments where it was very good and a great cast, its worth checking out. 2/28/16
