By Owen Gleiberman Verified| Variety Verified You know what it’s like when you have a problem, or maybe a few of them, and they start to interlock and overwhelm you, and you’re frozen and can’t take action, until hope seems to be fading or maybe even lost, and then one day you wake up and realize…that you need therapy? The movie industry needs therapy. It needs a lot of things, of course, starting with hits and more hits. That’s the long and short of it, isn’t it?
By Owen Gleiberman Verified| Variety Verified American movies overflow with arrested-development cases. (There’s something very American about that.) Yet it’s not every day that you see a engaging indie comedy about “adulting” — that is, characters of a certain age who are still sealed inside the youth bubble, to the point that they regard conventional grown-up activities like holding down a job or taking care of another person as beyond-their-pay-grade endeavors. The smart and fluky “Sacramento” is that kind of movie.
