Résumés(1)
Wilson est un misanthrope acerbe qui prend un malin plaisir à dire leurs quatre vérités aux gens qu'il croise. Par hasard, il apprend qu'il est le père d'une jeune fille que Pippi, son ex-femme qui l'a quitté dix-sept ans plus tôt, a abandonnée à la naissance. Il se découvre alors une fibre paternelle et veut retrouver sa progéniture qui vit une adolescence ingrate. Avec Pippi, qui en a fini avec la drogue, ils retrouvent sa trace et se mettent à la suivre dans l'espoir de reconstruire une famille. Mais, en raison de la personnalité de Wilson, les retrouvailles sont un peu chaotiques... (TF1)

Woody Harrelson makes up this movie’s entire value. I was enjoying this life thrill-ride from the very beginning till the very end and I didn’t even mind at all. Wilson’s life was the right kind of crazy and Woody has secured it a solid, independent, American three-star rating.

This film has basically only two positive things about it. The first is the great Woody Harrelson, who carries it all the way to the end. The other positive is Laura Dern, who is great again, as always. Unfortunately, the script, although it seems interesting at times, ultimately leads the main character into a state that is not interesting at all, becoming one big cliché.

As I look at the reviews here, I get the growing sense that a lot of people have not taken to the criticism of the current tragic workings of the world, which I think Wilson embodies almost perfectly, whether I consider the whole film or just its central character. Woody Harrelson in the title role really rocks and the more restrained Laura Dern also does justice to her name. I had a great time with it, even though it is a very sad story. (85%)
