There really wasn’t anything WRONG with The Soloist, it just wasn’t that good…Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr. both gave impressive performances (especially Jamie) which ultimately made the movie worthwhile. I guess the direction wasn’t exceptional and the movie did drag at times, but all in all it’s worth seeing, and definitely not worth a barely over two star rating on here.

I think that it just wasn’t a brilliant script really to begin with, but it could’ve been a thousand times worse. One of the better inspirational movies I’ve seen in a while.
