Mini-Movie Review: Broken Flowers

What's it about?
As the devoutly single Don Johnston (Murray) is dumped by his latest girlfriend (Delpy), he receives a anonymous pink letter informing him that he has a son who may be looking for him. The situation causes Don to examine his relationships with women instead of moving on to the next one, and he embarks on a cross-country search for his old flames who might possess clues to the mystery at hand.

My appreciation:
I liked this film. I love the recent roles that Bill Murray has taken as of late. He is just perfect for those roles at this time in his life. Story is simple and a little too even but the film works in the end. May not be everyone's cup of tea though. If you like introsspective storylines with dark humor and mundane reflections on existential questions related to one's life, then maybe this is for you. I would go as far as saying that if you liked Lost in Translation, you'll like this one. if you prefer ninjas and American Pie humour, maybe you should skip this one.

I rate this one 7.5 pink roses out of 10.
