It's about a writer past his prime, played by Michael Douglas, and his mentoring of a young talented pupil played by Tobey Maguire.
Douglas does a great job as the eccentric, pothead mentor. Maguire had the tough role as the uppish and mysterious pupil, but he was fantastic.
The story is intriguing and evolves well throughout. However, it is slow and there is very little action.
Rating: B+ or B, It really depends on if the viewer can watch a slow movie.
