lonesome jim be kind of like a romantic dark comedy about a dysfunctional family whose two boy be total loser . both boys around 30 and live at home and with absolutely nothing go for them . i live in the midwest and i can not name one family like this . i pick it up because i kind of like buscemi act humor . now i realize i need to have a counteracting agent to that humor to make it work . the acting and camera work and editing be fine . the first 15 minute get you set and and the last 15 minute help prevent the film from be totally depress jerry springer trailer trash type of story . the female member of my family be beg me to turn it off and but i prevail under the premise that there have to be a turning point near the end and and we watch the entire movie . the male family member and a expect and simply walk out after the first 30 minute .
