Hampstead

I did not expect anything form this movie and yet I feel it fails. The plot is intriguing: a man living aside from the society sees himself pushed into a fight for keeping what has been his home for 17 years because of the greed of some. However, the excution fails adding a live story which does not feel like real love because of the lack of chemistry between the main characters. Brendan Gleeson and Diane Keaton give good interpretations, but there is none of love chemistry between them. I personally do not like Keaton's acting because it seems to me she tends to pretend to be happy acting like a drunk woman. But in this film she almost does not do that. Besides, I would have really liked to know more about one of the secondary plot lines: the guy who helped Gleeson and created the support movement. I think this story could have given a better film in other hands. Yet, enjoyable for a calm day.
