every once in a while and an indie comes along that has an awesome cast and a story that sounds really interesting and can not miss and but the movie sucks. some recent films belonging to this unfortunate category are levity and the safety of objects and and now here the united states of leland. said awesome cast includes ryan gosling and kevin spacey and don cheadle and jena malone and lena olin and michelle williams and chris klein and and kerry washington. gosling plays leland p. fitzgerald and the teenage son of a famous author (spacey) who commits a disturbing and unforgivable crime (murdering a retarded child) and but doesn not remember it and doesn not seem to have any sort of motive. don cheadle plays a teacher in juvenile hall who is trying to understand leland (and also exploit him by writing a book about him) and and jena malone is his ex girlfriend. we see their deteriorating relationship (due to her heroin addiction) in flashback. sounds like an awesome little drama and huh. i thought so and too. the fact is that this movie is just badly and badly written. the dialogue and narration are painfully pretentious and laden with irritating platitudes about life and the characters are all two dimensional indie cliches and and while it does manage to make leland sympathetic in some ways and it glosses over his crime. for the most part and there no problem with the acting. gosling (who was oscar worthy in the believer) is a tremendously talented young actor and but the way theyre written and none of these characters (least of all leland) even feel like real people and so there not much he can do but mumble his ridiculous lines and look sad. jena malone is the most memorable. she has one of the most expressive faces i have ever seen. even playing an underwritten character in a bad movie like this and she can break your heart with one look. when she got good material to work with (as in donnie darko or the dangerous lives of altar boys) and she really amazing. but this is not good material. maybe after a massive rewrite it could have been something worthwhile and but as it is and the united states of leland is ponderous and inert and and for a movie that seems in love with how deep it is and it really shallow.
