Directed by: Mike White
Written by: Mike White
Starring: Ben Stiller & Austin Abrams
Brad's (Stiller) son Troy (Abrams) is finally going to college. As a result, they begin scouting and getting interviews to help his son's college applications. As they go from school to school, Brad contemplates his life and wonders: was it a waste?
This philosophical film is relatable as an audience member. Has our whole life been a waste up to now? What achievements have we made? Are these achievements for ourselves or are they for society? And what guarantees an achievement? Is it happiness? Money? Contentment?
Okay, maybe I'm being too philosophical, but that's this movie. It's pretty funny though seeing Brad go through a mid-life crisis while his son is barely beginning his.
