A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

I watched the trailer for this years ago and put it on a list to watch eventually. It popped up on Netflix and I gave it a go. The film was worth watching; it is a lot like the trailer which is a bit of a bummer because usually I like them to go more in-depth than what's offered by a two minute trailer. The film really was about an alcoholic battling his inner demon of alcoholism while his life falls apart. So really it's if he can overcome his addiction while at the lowest point in his life. I thought the acting was great across the board. Will Ferrell's character as you can imagine, constantly drinks. He drank so much in the film to where I could almost taste the beer making me sick, but that's on a positive note because I would imagine, that was the point of the excessiveness of the lead character drinking constantly. The film holds a lot of life lessons for multiple characters and has a lot of heart. To get to the end of the film it feels like a very dark road but that's clearly intentional. I wont say the end or give any context because people should really watch the film not read it. It's worth watching at least once.

It is a very nice movie. When you say that something is nice and you really mean it, that's the kind of movie it is.It's a little sad too, but it leaves you with a nice feeling. I'm using the word nice a lot of times because it is a nice movie.I gave it 7/10 because it is a slow moving movie, if it had a little bit bit more excitement and/or humour, I would give it 8/10.Watch it when you have nothing else to do or if you want to see Will Ferrel as you have never seen him before.Again, it's a nice, nice movie.PS. I was a little disappointed because I watched on my birthday and I thought I was going to watch a comedy. So a warning for you - it's not a comedy.

"Everything Must Go" is a comedy - drama movie which shows us a man who after being fired from his job due to his alcoholic relapses and losing his wife, trying to start over. A new neighbor looks like the key to help him go on with his life.I believe that Will Ferrell makes one of his best not to tell the best interpretation of his life. I really liked it because makes it truly understandable for everyone how he feels about all of these, his agony and depression.Finally I have to say that "Everything Must Go" is a really worth seeing movie and I strongly recommend it because as I said before it combines drama with comedy.

'Everything Must Go' will never be a commercial success. At best, it's going to be one of those films that will find its market several years from when it was first released.For a start, it has Will Ferrell as the leading man - an actor constantly linked with madcap, silly throwaway comedies. Secondly, and if you've seen the trailer you'll know what I mean, it's sold as a 'comedy.' It's not. It's a melodrama. And, possibly worse still, it's very sad.Will Ferrell plays Nick Halsey - an alcoholic who, on the same day, gets fired and finds out his wife is leaving him by returning home to find she has thrown all his possessions out onto the front lawn. And that's that really. There's not much of a plot/story to it. Another thing you should know is that the film doesn't really move from there - the whole ninety minutes is spent on Ferrell's front/rear lawn (and a lot of people seem to have critisised it for this).What little story there is, centres on themes rather than moving the script along. It deals with loss and hope. If you've ever been made redundant, you may well empathise with Ferrell who has to endure the feeling of being thrown on the scrapheap just when you really didn't need it. He accurately portrays a real sense of emptiness, confused hostility to people who, under normal circumstances, he wouldn't treat like that. Plus the hope that his wife may come back. He doesn't know what's what and is in the dark.If you're looking for a deeper (laugh-free!) movie, you may get something out of this. However, if you're expecting some sort of 'Anchorman II' laugh-a-minute flick, you may feel slightly cheated.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/
