Fascinating story of someone who may be America's greatest song writer. Was never a huge Beach Boys fan until I picked up Pet Sounds a few years ago. It is truly and amazing listen with headphones. I thought the duel Brain Wilson roles were well done and Paul Dano gave the first performance I have not hated him in. (not him but the character he plays) Probably won't be in theaters long but work the watch.

Dano steals the show in every movie I've seen him in. Phenomenal actor. But I actually found the trailer to be hard to follow because he and Cusack look nothing alike. What were they thinking there? They could have at least used some Looper type CGI.

Really liked this film. Dano was awesome and Giamatti was great as always. Makes me look at the Beach Boys a lot differently.

Just got out, and I'm a huge Wilson/Beach Boys fan (I keep Pet Sounds, the original Smile Recordings, and Wilson's take, and usually Friends, Holland, etc. on my phone at all times), but I loved it.
Really well done. A little too much of Dano staring, but it kind of makes sense in the story. Performances were solid all around, I liked the intercuts, and they really didn't pull any punches.
Great movie.

Very well done. I was never really into the beach boys but this movie had me digging into their music afterward.
I thought Dano and Cusack were both outstanding as was Giamatti. Very well done, never had any low points. Intertwining the time periods throughout is what I thought most impressive about the direction. Seems to me like a difficult thing to pull off coherently without too much clutter.
Solid film
