The Weather Man

This is dark humor at its best. It is just a very depressing movie of a man that should enjoy his life but some how mess things up. When he does not get his way he does something self centered and... Full review

I found this hugely funny. Also weathering the ravages of divorce - and concern of parents - I greatly appreciate the absurdity faced in this story of mixed emotions and finding a balance that works for everyone while adjusting to changed... Full review

this was a jumbeled up story with scenes of no meaninng and it had no point it was a cold movie not a heart warming film... Full review

This was the worst movie in history. This movie seemed to have no plot whatsoever and it seemed as if some teenage boy wrote it in his room. This movie seemed to lack anything funny and I cannot agree with everyone... Full review

I am a huge fan of Cage. I went to the movie thinking it was going to be funny. The theme was just like the movie Crash. Very dark and not funny. If you want to go into a show happy... Full review

The movie consists of one hour and 30 minutes of Nicholas Cage acting like a impotent idiot. His character cannot handle children, divorce, his ex-wife, or his fans - and feels sorry for himself constantly. If failure, impotence, and confusion are... Full review

I have read many reviews of this film and have come to the conclusion that it is not for everyone. I totally enjoyed the film, but I like intelligent, dark comedy and great acting. I have read complaints about the profanity... Full review

The only words I can say about this movie is... It sucks...and...I wasted my money for it! There is no point of the movie.... Full review

With so many good actors, it's almost impossible to make a bad film. Almost. The film is slow, depressing, and predictable. It drags on endlessly, from one depressing scene to another, until it lulls you to sleep.... Full review

I left this movie 30 minutes into it. Disgusting, pointless waste of film. Children subjected to degenerate filth. I can take a little language but draw the line when children or even aduts portraying children play vulgar and self humiliating parts.... Full review

In "The Weather Man," Nicolas Cage, a great oddball movie star who sometimes takes enormous risks, has a good, risky part again. Like those old classics, "Weather Man" looks beautifully bleak; the tonier sections of Chicago along the lake and the river have rarely been caught as evocatively and well. ... Full Review

No, what's got me confused today is my feelings about the current crop of films being helmed by visual effects artists instead of directors with any sort of actual directing experience. And in some cases -- especially with Verbinski and The Pirate's of the Caribbean franchise -- the promotion to director has been a huge financial success. ... Full Review

Unfortunately, despite its relatively low reported budget of $22 million, "The Weather Man" feels like most other hollow, artificial Hollywood major studio fare. The cast is populated by people who dont seem to care about the material (this applies to even Michael Caine, who appears constipated and bored). ... Full Review

He excels again in that capacity in The Weather Man in a role....I'm sure there will be some who will accuse The Weather Man of being smug and misanthropic, in the manner of a Todd Solodnzfilm ( Palindromes )..... ... Full Review

And while at one point in Verbinski's film Cage's character takes up archery, scoring bullseye after bullseye on a snowbound practice range, in all other respects The Weather Man is woefully off target. The wind chill factor is off the scale in Gore Verbinski's latest effort, a bleak character study that wallows in the same self-pitying funk that besets its morose, life-hating anti-hero. ...

Each evening consists of three pieces of about an hour in length. They all involve music and words but that is about as closely as you can define this three-week jamboree of 21st-century work. ... Full Article

"The character I play is Dave Spritz, he's a Chicago weatherman," says Nic Cage in his explain-the-character interview. "I point that out," he says "because a Chicago weatherman is a whole different animal than a Los Angeles weatherman. ... Full Article

Gore Verbinski's The Weather Man disingenuously conveys the fickleness of day-to-day existence via a monsoon of profane, contrived moroseness. Local Chicago TV weatherman David Spritz (Nicolas Cage) is a walking disaster, incapable of cordially interacting with ex-wife Noreen (Hope Davis),... ... Full Article

Popular Chicago weatherman, Dave Spritz, has a shot at the big time when a national morning television show calls him for an audition. Professionally, Dave is on the top of the world, but his personal life is in complete disarray. ... Full Article
