Pros: Honestly, it was hard to find a truly good aspect of this film though the acting was at least palatable, though the characters just seemed slightly disjointed and didn't mesh together as well as they needed.
Cons: The film was pointless, Oskar (Thomas Horn) is sent on a journey only to have it end helping someone else instead, he's no closer to getting closure after his father's (Tom Hanks's) death and the twist of having the mute Renter (Max von Sydow) as his grandfather was predictable and even having Sandra Bullock's Linda uncover the truth rang hollow.
Recommend: No
Grade: C+
Side Notes:
-Despite the supporting being solid, including Viola Davis, Jeffrey Wright and John Goodman, there was no saving this film.
-The idea that a sixth borough existed in New York is not the worst idea but it is poorly addressed in this film.
-It is never explained why a jeweler had a meeting in the World Trade Center on a Tuesday morning.
