Bill or Meet Bill its one of the best entertainment movies I've seen lately and it goes a bit beyond entertainment... So, who is Bill? Bill is someone who suddenly realizes he has a miserable life, he's in his 40's married to a beautiful woman, but who is cheating on him,his body is seriously unfit which causes a major lack of confidence and self esteem and on top of that he hates his job and the fact that he is working to his father-in-law. Not hard to relate,right?Bill almost against his will ends up joining a mentoring program and becomes the mentor of a 15 year old kid and that's when it all starts.Obviously the kid turns out to be the real mentor in the relationship, he is smart, he is sexy, he is absolutely confident and like bill says in the end he has it all figured out. The cast is great, but Aaron Eckhart and Logan Lerman are undeniably amazing and so is their chemistry on screen. I am not sure what Eckhart does but the audience(myself included) always love his characters, just watch Thank You For Smoking. And Logan, wow, the kid is talented, he acts like he is 18, not 15 or 16.I have to mention the BEAUTIFUL Elizabeth Banks, she was very good in her role and of course,Jessica Alba, she lights up the screen.
Bill doesn't fit into comedy neither into drama .It has many elements of both genres and its exactly what a movie should be. Surprises me the poor rating...
