The LifeGuard

Watch The Trailers
Sometimes an artist whose career has been fairly well established but known safe roles want venturing into indie film world just to show the acting talent that she can not show in the movies usually. Take for example Drew Barrymore makes people surprised he could look different from the usual Riding in the Car with Boys or Anne Hathaway in Havoc. Sometimes the artist succeeded in changing public perception  but sometimes again failed. Kristen Bell is known as a rising young artist through the series Veronica Mars; although his career on the big screen during this stuck in stagnant roles, Bell did not give up. In the film The Lifeguard she wants to show the quality of his acting. How is the result?

Leigh was nearing the age of three but instead he heads more stable with the direction her life now she is more hesitant. He was confused about where to go while his career as a journalist instead make him more hated by himself. Leigh eventually took the drastic decision to quit his job and then returned to her hometown. He hopes that by returning to live with his parents, and met with his old friends back then he could find his way.
To be able to finance his life Leigh worked as a Lifeguard (security guard) in the pool. He also reunited with old friends like Mel and Todd, respectively also are struggling with their quarter-life crisis. Not only met with his old friend, Leigh no warning also get new friends Matt and Jason are both often hang out at the pool Leigh duty. How Leigh and her friends cope with quarter-life crisis that they face?
The film is supposed to be very striking with my life since the age of Leigh exactly the same as me when watching it. At first it was so, I can feel and understand the struggles that Leigh was not sure what direction my life considering myself also not a hundred percent sure of the path of my life (lo? why even so vent?). However, the scenario written by Liz W. Garcia who is also a director of this film lost its appeal after the initial third of the film. After this film provides an interesting setup for existing characters and the struggles they faced it then do not advance the existing conflicts, but instead make their way somewhere.Please visit here
Conflict within Mel and Todd as a friend Leigh example just discussed in the repeated repetition until now bored. Okay, Mel having problems in her marriage. Okay, Todd was confused with his identity. So what? What actions taken by both of them and how we as the audience can learn or look of their development? But Garcia never attempts to describe and explore this conflict in more depth.

The same money with Leigh. As the main character in this story he does have he does have a good story with old friends, new friends, to his parents. But what he did during the lonely feel strange and forced. On the other hand men do with age that makes this film so much criticism is not entirely my care. Hey, when it comes to women who are dating each other with underage men in Indonesia too much anyway. Could it be way too flat Garcia raised this conflict ultimately it makes me not care about the main conflict of this movie? The only actor I know in this movie is Kristen Bell and her acting here standard. If Bell hopes that this film will make it flooded offer more challenging roles clearly does not.
