What Maisie Knew (2012) Scott Mc Gehee, David Siegal (reviewed by Jason Presents)



A modern day Kramer Vs. Kramer if you will. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. You will do well to hate two parents more in another movie, but that's a tribute to how well acted it was by Julianne Moore and Steve Coogan; however both of these are overshadowed by one of the best child performances I've ever seen from Onata Aprile. I thought it was beautifully shot and edited, and the disparity between bright colors and off key soundtrack stylistically complements the confusion the child finds herself in.  Aindriu and Mary both gave this 7, a perfectly acceptable score, Gerard 4.5 and Ross 5, two terribly unjustified scores if you ask me, mine may be a little high but I'll go with it nonetheless...
