DVD Review: The Search for John Gissing - Page 2

No one in the film, from the protagonist Barnes to the corporate executives (including a French CEO) and to the wily John Gissing himself is very bright. Well, except maybe Linda, who is in nearly perpetual foot-tapping “pissy” mode, just wanting to leave the madness and go home. I’m with her.

The DVD includes several extras, including Binder’s commentary, and outtakes from the film.

    I just had to comment that I adore Alan Rickman as well, originally used to watch Sense and Sensibility to sigh over him, and now get double the pleasure now that I am gaga over Hugh Laurie as well. I think it helped that a substantial number of Rickman fans petitioned Binder to release the film on DVD after it failed to find a distributor for theatrical release. Glad I got the chance to see it, but definitely one where some good parts don't add up to a consistently good movie.
