Like most men, whether they will admit it or not, I am basically made up of the male characters in this film. There’s been times where I’ve been so uncomfortable with myself and my opinions that I aped others opinions as my own. There’s been times where I’ve been a pompous, bitter, difficult person and made being around impossible. There’s been times where I’ve not known what was going on in my life and just wanted to cum on things. “Is she a Knicks fan?”

Well the dad clearly has some regrets and issues, and the mother sure is a bit too honest. Messed up family but as we can see, people persist and life goes on. It may suck, but in reality it doesn't. It just happens and it just is. It defines you and you grow with all the pleasantries and unpleasantries alike. I really liked the tone of this film, but I'm biased as really dig what Baumbach is usually offering and this one was no exception.

So painful to watch. Brutally honest as a personal piece on the destruction a divorce causes. Gotta love its relentless pace, although I don't know if the easy portrait of toxic masculinity survives the test of time.

Highly personalised view of divorce is extremely well-acted and no doubt true to life, but spending time with any of these characters, even for a mercifully brief hour and change, is neither a pleasant nor edifying experience. Baumbach feels too close to these people - a different writer or director might have dug deeper to explore their underpinning motivations, rather than the superficial skim we get here. Unexpectedly highlighted by Baldwin's quite wonderful performance as a vapid gym rat.

Even when we don't have to war with external problems like most people, with enivornmental or social struggles -- even when we can live comfortably, we are still people at the end of the day. Confused, self-interested, torn people. And Baumbach's Squid and the Whale is a beautiful mirror-reflection of that. It effortlessly gives us the insight of the whole picture while pivoting us into certain camps. There are no good or bad guys. Just people.
