I like this director, one of his film was in my all time favourite list.

… ExpandĪbout a salesman who went to sell his product sold himself. Overall, this unique film with a unique title about depression is funny, heartfelt, and has a great performance from Tom Hanks. In addition, there are a few dead- areas where the pacing is too slow. However, the story lacks focus as there are many subplots that go unfinished. I laughed a lot throughout and the drama here made me care for this man. Not to mention that this is also quite hilarious. Unlike the recent film Demolition, this one better shows someone going through depression, while doing it in a lighthearted way. He meets many characters throughout who help him find meaning in his life and the film's conclusion is very abrupt. This is more or less a character study about a man who has lost direction in life. The backstory of our main character is shown in very quick flashbacks throughout the run- time and while there is a plot about trying to sell a hologram machine to the Saudi King, it's not the focus. He does a wonderful performance as a down- on- his- luck businessman who is trying to get his life in order.
