Daniel is fresh to Wall St. Though he looks the part as a young white guy in a shirt and tie, we’re repeatedly told how ill-fitting he is to Wall St. as an Ivy League graduate and a former Marine.Action Movie
Like many films do, “The Good Guy” uses a kind of Facebook profile approach to investing intelligence in its characters. Daniel is smart not because of anything he says or does, but because his favorite book is “Pride and Prejudice.” And he’s been to Botswana!
Daniel, rather unbelievably, does poorly in picking up girls or in the “Mad Men”-style wining-and-dining of clients. He fares better with Beth’s book club, and when they take up “The Good Soldier,” its obvious “The Good Guy” is a kind of homage to Ford Madox Ford’s novel.
A reckoning of some kind predictably comes, but nothing in the film provides much weight. Porter is wonderfully earnest and charismatic as a wheel chair-bound former QB on “FNL” (the best show on TV, incidentally) and he puts up a decent enough aloof frat boy front here.
But this is a movie of wallflowers. DePietro’s cardboard cutout characters try to reinforce the simplistic cliche of: suits bad, artsy people good.
“The Good Guy” is a long flashback, bookended by an eventful, rainy night. It’s a picture of a Manhattan (mostly the Upper East Side) of fancy rooftops, doorman buildings, taxis, nice restaurants — and nothing in shadows.
It makes one crave the darkness of “American Psycho.”
“The Good Guy,” a Roadside Attractions release, is rated R for pervasive language and some sexual content. Running time: 90 minutes. One and half stars out of four
