Grady is a 50-ish English professor who hasn't had a thing published in years—not since he wrote his award winning 'Great American Novel' 7 years ago. This weekend proves even worse than he could imagine as he finds himself reeling from one misadventure to another in the company of a new wonder boy author.

WatchWise Score
63/100
★★★☆☆
681 votes across 1 source
Blended from TMDB 68 (100% weight); shrunk toward a 62 baseline by 681 total votes. Not a plain average: sources are weighted by reliability and vote count, and thin evidence is pulled toward the catalogue baseline.
- · Rated by only a few hundred people, so the score is less reliable.
- · Middling scores: fine for a casual watch, not a must-see.
- · An older title — pacing and style may feel dated.
