Cyrus: Blu Ray Review
Cyrus
Rating: M
Released by Roadshow
Cyrus stars John C
Reilly, Jonah Hill and Marisa Tomei as a mismatched trio.
Reilly is John a divorcee who meets Marisa's Molly at a party and they hit it
off; so much so that after 7 years' estrangement from his ex Catherine Keener,he
thinks she could be the one.
There's only one
problem - her 21 year old son Cyrus (Hill) who initially welcomes John to their
home but soon starts to act up in order to get him out.
Cyrus is a polished little gem of a dramedy of a film, delightfully
quirky and confounds every expectation - while still delivering plenty of laughs
and a good dose of heart.
The style is interesting as well - as it appears to have been shot on
handheld cameras so they swoop in and out capturing every awkwardly odd
moment.
The reason it works though is because of the leads - and if you give into the
film's slightly weird ways and restrained humour, you'll love it
Extras: Deleted scenes, puppet movie
(!) and intros
Rating: 7/10
