My Take

Chris Weitz is a fascinating case of range. Most people first met him through the raucous comedy of American Pie, made with his brother Paul, then About a Boy earned the two of them an Oscar nomination for adapted screenplay. That jump from gross-out laughs to genuinely tender storytelling impresses me. He later took on big franchise work, and I always find it interesting when a filmmaker can swing from intimate character pieces to studio tentpoles without losing himself. The brother partnership is what I keep coming back to, since collaborative siblings rarely sustain that kind of creative balance for so long.
