The Weather Man (2005)


An American drama directed by Gore Verbinski, starring Nicolas Cage.
A weather man at a city news channel has a tough life. People throw things at him on the street and ask him about the weather outside of work. He is divorced and his wife hates him. She is in a relationship with another man who also hates him. His son is in out-patient drug rehab and the counselor is a pedophile. His daughter is fat and is made fun of at school, but doesn't know what the insults mean. However, the weather man is in the process of getting a job at a better news channel.
I thought the plot was pointless and the characters were trying to cover every base as far as dysfunction is concerned. The style was "new movie too perfect" all the way. The only thing I liked was that Nicolas cage was in a weak role, his strong point. I'm rating this bad because I think it's stupid.
