Former college room mates Charlie and Alan meet up again by chance on a Manhattan street corner. Five years after losing his family on 9/11, Charlie has retreated from his life, and Alan is stunned to see the changes in his friend.
Somewhat bored and dissatisfied with his own life Alan tries to help his friend overcome his loss but does Charlie need help or is he coping by just doing it his own way?
A very well directed film, I really liked the shots of Charlie cruising around the streets of New York on his motorised scooter. Its also very well acted by Don Cheadle and Adam Sandler. Sandler’s character, Charlie is really likeable which makes the film all the more enjoyable.
8/10

I saw this a while ago with Paul and we both really didn’t get it!
