Dark Horse
Dir: Todd Solondz
2011
****
The antidote to all those slacker done good/feel good success films. It's anti Hollywood, gives unnecessary enthusiasm the finger and as much as I like Judd Apatow films (the older ones anyway), it does feel like it gives them a fair right-hook to the jaw which they pretty much had coming. Devilishly dark and melancholy, I for one welcome the return of Todd Solondz, one of cinema's saviors!
