Here Kevin shows all the imagination of a hungover sophomore slogging out his late term paper, raiding every cliche on page two of his well dog-eared Film Criticism For Dummies. Must do better Kevin. "Wasteland" is a charming and at times witty film that garners strong performances and a confident take on a familiar genre. Reinvent the wheel? Maybe not, but an entertaining and convincing debut made for a tight budget, from what the director indicated in his Q&A. I liked this film, as did the vast majority of the audience at the Toronto screening I attended. I paid for my ticket, Kevin, did you?
