3 stars out of 4 -- What's admirable about BEING FLYNN is that it doesn't cave in to the standard Hollywood redemption formulas, with the father redeemed and the son inspired. It's more complicated than that.

I'm still not sure what this is all supposed to be about, save for a bunch of scenes that happened to somebody, sometime.

[The film] credibly engages in elemental human ways thanks to insightful writing and sensitive performances all around.

Rating: 2.5/4 -- For a movie that deals with suicide, homelessness and cocaine addiction, writer-director Paul Weitz's latest family drama feels strangely bland.
