SnoopyStyle Wilson (Woody Harrelson) is a cynical crank. His only two 'friends' are moving to St. Louis. He leaves his dog with Shelly (Judy Greer) to visit his father dying from cancer. He tracks down estranged ex-wife Pippi (Laura Dern) and discovers that she didn't have the abortion 17 years earlier. He finds their daughter Claire (Isabella Amara) given up for adoption.Harrelson is good although the movie doesn't get good until he finds Pippi. It would be better to get there faster. Once they connect with Claire, the movie is funnier with greater stakes. The trio is fun but then the movie keeps jumping ahead and ahead. It would be more compelling to let the trio deal with their issues but the plot drifts away from that. The further away it goes, the less compelling it is. However, it does always have an interesting character study underneath everything and it does allow the characters to deal with their issues.
jo eib Before i decided to watch this movie i read some IMDb reviews. It was a mixed bunch and i wanted to see it because i believed in the positive ones. Now that i have seen it, i can say they were totally right.Wilson is the story of an ordinary man who doesn't really want to take part in our modern society, mainly because of technology taking away social interactions. The movie does well in showing us the perverted lifestyle we developed because of technologies and capitalism. It made me think about these topics a lot and even affected me personally.I shed quiet a lot of tears, i was cought off guard by the movie and that is something i do not experience a lot.I would not describe this movie as a pure comedy, for me it is like 60% Drama and 40% comedy. In my opinion Wilson deserves a way higher rating.
Funasian2005 The movie didn't make much sense to me. Maybe after a second watch i would understand it better. That makes the movie unwatchable. My friend gave it a 5.8 had some laughs, maybe he is older and understands the human relationships more.2/10 from me and 5.8 from him.
prexactly This movie had me laughing so much I'm gonna have to watch it again because I missed some of the dialog due to not being able to stop laughing. There is a lot of foul language because Woody's character has no filter, and that's part of the humor. Unlike most movies made these days, there's a purpose and method to the language. It's not just foul language for the sake of foul language. Having said that, it's probably best to watch alone, or with someone you know is not sensitive to foul language. Woody does an excellent job with his character, although I get the feeling it wasn't much of a stretch for him. This may be the best I've seen from Woody. Excellent movie!
