GOOD TIME MAX (2007)

Cast

Plot

Two genius brothers grow up and grow apart as one becomes a successful surgeon and the other pursues a drug-fueled high life. <br>James Franco's self-penned and directed feature is a modest piece of work. There are moments that show off his exceptional talents (the drugged-up plane flight has a surreal comic intensity in particular) and the film has a nicely surprising moral ambivalence. On the whole though, the overfamiliarity of the set-up and characters proves to much of a drag to let it soar.
