A Real Pain (CTC)
Led by a scene-stealing turn from Kieran Culkin, A Real Pain is a powerfully funny, emotionally resonant dramedy that finds writer-director-star Jesse Eisenberg playing to his strengths on either side of the camera.
Mismatched cousins David and Benji reunite for a tour through Poland to honour their beloved grandmother. The adventure takes a turn when the odd-couple's old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history.
Cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Kieran Culkin, Jennifer Grey, Will Sharpe
Director: Jesse Eisenberg
★★★★ "a multilayered look at generational trauma with poignant and hilarious complex chemistry from its leads; Kieran Culkin is fully raw, vulnerable, and authentic" FLICKERING MYTH
★★★★ "a hilarious buddy comedy about a very unfunny scenario... a terrific sophomore effort for Eisenberg" HEYUGUYS
"It’s a delight and a revelation — a deft, funny, heady, beautifully staged ramble of a road movie" VARIETY
"A frequently laugh-out-loud funny odd couple road trip movie whose emotional wallop sneaks up and floors you." HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
