After the first 30 minutes I felt like the film lacked energy. The pace was a little too slow for my taste, and the intensity too low. I wanted it to be snappier, more sizzling.But then, about halfway through, it... Full review

All I can say about this movie that it's all about art, right? Maybe, it's all that anyone can say in their own point of view. Here you got an art student(Rachel Weisz) who meets a meek man name Adam(Paul Rudd).... Full review

Neil LaBute starts his latest film, THE SHAPE OF THINGS, off with a sly dig at what the story is going to be about. Rudd makes a convincing change to cutie-pie while still carrying around the soul of his yutz past, not to mention his very tender heart on his newly stylish sleeve. ... Full Review

The Shape of Things , in the end, even with the great cast and smart choices and razor-sharp writing, comes down to Rudd -- the bright light of hope in his eyes in some scenes, the dim dull darkness of doubt and depression in others.

only works with an actor's strong delivery.....masco Rodriguez's directing is fine, the transitions smooth and actually entertaining, but the overall story is rather bleak.....Shawn Lee, as Phillip, Adam's best friend, is the most engaging and dynamic, casually tossing out lines designed to skewer, yet amuse.....Playwright and filmmaker Neil LaBute brings his trendy cynicism to Los Angeles audiences once again in "The Shape of Things," now playing at the Balcony Theatre in Pasadena..... ...
