Louder
Than Bombs
Johnny's comments:
Louder Than Bombs is a
drama where a family is
still coming to terms with
the death of their
wife/mother (Isabelle
Huppert) four years later
when an article about her
life's work as a war
photographer and her death
is about to be published.
Her school teacher husband
Gene (Gabriel Byrne) has
moved on with fellow
teacher Hannah (Amy Ryan),
but he hasn't told his
youngest son Conrad (Devin
Druid) and that's not the
only thing he hasn't told
him. Conrad is a moody,
withdrawn teenage boy
trying to fit in and has a
crush on a cheerleader
clearly out of his league.
His older brother Jonah
(Jesse Eisenberg) has just
become a father and while
at the hospital he runs
into a former girlfriend
Erin (Rachel Brosnahan)
whose mother has just
died. Jonah decided to
come home to help with the
exhibition of his mother's
photos, but in reality
he's struggling with
coming to terms with being
a father and is avoiding
it. Over a week or so,
Gene attempts to connect
with his sons as they
remember their mother, but
it's a lot harder than he
expected.
OK movie about a family
coming to terms with the
loss of their mother/wife
and how it happened, but I
thought that by the end,
it didn't really reveal
much or have anything
major happen. It all seems
so anti-climatic with
barely anything gained or
learned. Kinda pointless.
