If you've always dreamed of watching Jeff Bridges brush a dog's teeth, then by all means, watch this movie. Otherwise, take a big, big, pass. So dull and clichéd. A writer with writer's block. A midlife crisis. Wise rural folk. The only reason I gave it a two instead of a one is that it has some visual appeal -- Jeff Bridges and lots of outdoor shots of high summer in a place that looks like Vermont, maybe? New Hampshire? One of those New England states. Or a Canadian province. But that doesn't make up for the life I wasted watching this from beginning to end. I kept thinking: If Jeff Bridges is in it, it must be worth watching. Nope. Nope, nope.
