Suffering from a severe case of depression, toy company CEO Walter Black (Mel Gibson) begins using a beaver hand puppet to help him open up to his family. With his father seemingly going insane, adolescent son Porter (Anton Yelchin) pushes for his parents to get a divorce. Jodie Foster directs and co-stars as Walter’s wife in this dark comedy that also features Riley Thomas Stewart and Jennifer Lawrence.
Mel Gibson really has upped his game…this was perfectly acted with emotion and passion. I took so much from this often quirky, sometimes deeply moving human drama about a family struggling with life on life’s terms. This film goes off the rails at times. Great cast and a really cool soundtrack. Liked it!!!!
