"Greenberg" Review


If you’ve been reading my reviews for awhile you’ll know that I’m not Ben Stiller’s biggest fan. I feel he’s a one trick pony that plays one pathetic wimp after another. In some ways “Greenberg” is not much different from previous characters Stiller has played, and in some ways this is about as far from those previous characters as you can get. The movie stars stiller as Robert Greenberg, a man who has recently been released from a mental institution. At the age of 50 Greenberg is stuck in life. At one point the lead singer of a rock band that almost got signed to a record deal, he walked away from that dream and destroyed not only his life but the lives of his band mates and friends.
