joe gould come across a an annoying and irritating character . unfortunately and the character have no warmth to it . instead and it grate on the viewer . the movie start ok and but a the gould character come into itself and it shenanigan become too much to bear . the incessant bickering and the tantrum and the mood swing be just too much . at one point and the character be vandalize a phone booth and and it be just not believable that the barkeeper do not kick his as out of the establishment . also highly irritate be the fake accent employ by stanley tucci for his mitchell character . for some reason and it just doesn not work . all in all and i pretty much hat this movie and and could not wait for it to end . some movie be not great and but be serviceable . after about 15 minute and the gould character make this movie completely unwatchable . todd .
