Miscellaneous Movie Musings

I had a chance to see Adam a few days ago - going into it, I knew that I was going to compare it to 500 Days of Summer. With that said, I didn't think that Adam was as good as 500 Days. AFAIK, Adam is the first movie that explicitly deals with Asperger's syndrome... but yet, it didn't do much with it and it certainly did not resonate with me. It's very funny at times but also heavy-handed at others.

I would recommend at least a rental for Hugh Dancy's performance. Just ignore Rose Byrne.
