The United States of Leland

Peter Rukavina

I saw my first “starts Friday in New York and Los Angeles” film tonight, The United States of Leland.

Summary: think American Pie plus American Beauty and a touch of Life as a House. It works in parts, but there are about 200% too many “pained looks” shots, and the plot just never ties together in a way that makes it all feel coherent.
