The Descendants (Blu-ray/DVD + Digital Copy) by Fox Searchlight

Only Oscar-winning writer-director Alexander Payne (Sideways) would suppose to cast the famously good-looking George Clooney as a raveled dad in his outstanding adaptation of Kaui Hart Hemmings's tragicomic novel. Clooney dials down the glamour to play Matt King, a Hawaii real-estate lawyer with a professionalpensity for unflattering shirts and ill-fitting trousers. When Matt's wife, Elizabeth, leads to a coma after a water-skiing accident, Matt should research to balance the parenting of his resentful daughters, Scottie (Amara Miller) and Alexandra (Shailene Woodley, The Secret Life of the American Teenager), with the sale of a pristine plot of Kauai land that stands to make the King cousins, together with scruffy Hugh (Beau Bridges), a fortune. As Elizabeth's condition aggravates, Matt contacts pals and household, like her fiercely protective father (Robert Forster), in order that they'll have the possibility to say goodbye. In the professionalcess, he to finds out she was once having an affair with realtor Brian Speer (Matthew Lillard, successfully solid against type), so he and the ladies, together with Alex's hellolariously mellow friend, Sid (Nick Krause), go on an island-hopping commute, ostensibly so as to add Brian to the combo, however Matt truly desires to search out out what his wife noticed in the guy. His ride from naiveté to knowledge conveys out Clooney's soulful facet, making a believably unsuitable, deeply sympathetic figure.
