Greenberg (2009)

Another misanthropic, smart-alecky comedy/drama from Noah Baumbach. Just when this thing starts to meander, it's suddenly lit up with sour, penetrating dialog. Ben Stiller does a good job in the title role and Greta Gerwig (who reminds me of Zooey Deschanel, except talented) gives a touching performance. Might not be worth a rental. Tivo it instead and save it for a dreary afternoon, preferably when hung over.
