Nobel Son out on DVD
Just watching Nobel Son, a creepy movie starring Alan Rickman and Mary Steenbergen, as well as Bill Pullman, Bryan Greenberg and Shawn Hatosy.
I don’t know why I missed this since I love Alan Rickman. This is a well-made thriller mystery with a few major twists and turns, as well as some humorous jibes at ego-maniac academics. The best scene uses a remote control Mini car running around a shopping center, but all at life-size. Unfortunately, it’s not for kids, with a fair amount of profanity and brief nudity. There is one scene of a thumb being chopped off – this isn’t a spoiler. That action happens even before the credits roll.
I found the end a little quick and sloppy. Too many loose ends tied up very fast without much explanation. All in all, though, a diverting movie for a plane ride or light amusement at home.
