Win Win 2011

Win Win (2011)    Mike Flaherty is an attorney but he's struggling to keep his practice in business.  He thinks he's found a new money source by becoming the legal guardian of an elderly client until the man's grandson shows up looking for a place to stay.  Mike is also a part-time wrestling coach and he finds out Kyle was a wrestler and he's good.  Kyle's mother shows up and she wants to move her father to Ohio where she live and also take her son.  The big draw for her is her father's money.
    Of course Paul Giamatti is a sad sack but he's better this time, he makes a bad decision, thinks he will get away with it but does the right thing finally.  3* (This movie is OK)

Note:  Blockbuster 3 1/2*, imdb 7.4 out of 10, 94% critic 86% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
