Poor Man's Alexander Payne

"The Baltimorons" plays like a poor man's Alexander Payne movie.It's a half quirky/half melancholy movie set at Christmas that leans into the most depressing aspects of the holidays. Why it was released in September I'm not sure.Michael Strassner manages to perform his duties admirably, playing a man who is so persistently goofy that he wins you over by wearing you down. Liz Larsen gives a nice performance too as the dentist who ends up spending a wacky day with him and striking up a tentative romance. The movie is hampered by the fact that these two actors, while having some decent buddy movie vibes with each other, have little romantic chemistry.This is an entertaining film of modest ambitions that I think I will barely remember when I think back on the movies I saw this year.Grade: B+

A charming and modern Christmas film

I hadn't appreciated Baltimorons was a Christmas film so seeing it at a festival in July was an unusual experience but to the film's credit it quickly immersed me in Christmas vibes. It successfully creates an appealing wintery aesthetic that is often the foundation of a seasonal film that stands the test of time.Baltimorons for me falls into a genre of the 'elevated Christmas film'. It has a very modern and serious topic at its centre while still deploying heartwarming, familiar troupes.The lead character is obnoxious and overbearing while simultaneously charming and vulnerable. The film centres on an eventful, spiralling Christmas eve spent with an unexpected companion. Both characters are well developed with their own issues to contend with and there is genuine chemistry in the performances.The Baltimorons is funny and charming and is certainly a successful Christmas film. Occasionally straining believability, as you wonder why the central characters stay with each other and how they manage to engage in so much madcap misadventure more or less unscathed. But it's nothing unusual of a film in this genre and I was very willing to go along with it.There is also a degree of insufferable behaviour from the main character as he pushes through with sheer force of will. But this is also key the the character himself and his own struggles. In fact I found him quite realistic to people I have have met in real life, just perhaps slightly exaggerated.Overall a thoroughly enjoyable experience and well worth a watch when winter comes round.

Real Heart, Real People

A newly sober man's Christmas Eve dental emergency leads to an unexpected romance with his older dentist as they explore Baltimore together.Directed by Jay Duplass. Written by Michael Strassner and Duplass.Thisne stars Strassner as Cliff a man struggling with sobriety an the direction his life has taken. After a dental emergency on Christmas Eve leads him to the only dentist available on the holiday, DiDi played by Liz Larson. Struggling with the direction her own life has taken.Both Strassner and Larson shine with so much personality. Strassner with the quick wit and Larson with her captivating smile and independent personality.This film grabs your attention from the opening scene and carries you along with the characters as they spend the day together exploring Baltimore and sometimes committing felonies. You can't help but root for them. They are two broken people whose broken pieces just somehow fit together to make a whole.The feel of Baltimore looms large over the entire production. The streets, the Ravens, 34th Street. Even the weather. As a lifelong Texan I just felt cold. The music slow and steady Christmas tunes played on the piano, should've dragged scenes down yet managed to fit firmly in place.The idea of a mismatched couple isn't a new one but this one worked on so many levels. Funny, heart warming, heart breaking and even frustrating at times.IMDb has this one at 7.5/10 For me it's a 8/10A very solid movie that just pulls you in and keeps you emotionally invested for the entire 101 minutes.Right or wrong, weak or strong...these are my opinions.
