Movie Review: Cyrus
On Saturday night we watched the movie, Cyrus. I thought this movie was weird, slow moving & boring. Erik thought it was a dark comedy with an interesting twist on a old story.
The story is about a divorced guy named John who meets a divorced Mom, Molly. They hit it off at a party and John is instantly smitten. Then, he meets her 22 yr old son - Cyrus. Cyrus still lives with his mother & they have this weird relationship together.
Cyrus doesn't like the idea of his Mom dating John and pulls out all of the stops to make sure the relationship doesn't work. There is a weird twist in the movie but it still didn't make it a good film for me.
Thought it was also ironic that John C. Reilly played a 30+ yr old son who still lived at home in Step Brothers and now was playing the divorced Dad role in a similar film!
Anyway, I say skip this film but Erik would probably say it was a good movie.
