Owning Mahowny

This is Philip Seymour Hoffman in monochrome.  No emotional range, no nothing.  Minnie Driver phones in her most insipid performance yet, which is saying something.  Director  Kwietniowski resorts to hackneyed plot devices and choppy scene selections.  "So" asks the Gentle Reader, "Did you like it or not?"

OMG! Heresy!! I agree that the plot and screenplay sucked rocks, but I think PS Hoffman absolutely RULED in this movie. He carried it. and well! I think this is one of those performances that proves what he can do as an actor.
