Proof [Blu-ray] [2005]

The cast is very good. The movie is good but a little too slow.

Paltrow superbly plays a would be mathematician coming out from the shadow of her great father now in decline.

I was expecting this to be a great movie because it had Gwyneth Paltrow and Anthony Hopkins in it. Very slow and drawn out. This is Gwyneth Paltrow's worst movie. I did not even keep it on my shelf. I will never watch this again.

With a film this bad, most film makers would have sought to redeem it with nudity, graphic violence, or big named stars. In this case, they chose some big name stars. Unfortunately the great cast (Anthony Hopkins and Gwyneth Paltrow) was not nearly enough to save the film. It gets two stars only because it has Anthony Hopkins.

Madness and math collide, a la A Beautiful Mind. Well adapted from the play and very well acted.
