My Take
Jesse Eisenberg has cornered the market on brilliant, anxious, fast-talking men, and I never tire of watching him do it. His Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network was so precise it practically defined a generation's idea of cold genius. Yet he is just as good as the timid survivor in Zombieland or the slick illusionist of Now You See Me, always finding a nervy edge. Lately, writing and directing A Real Pain, he has shown there is a serious filmmaker behind the actor. What draws me in is the tension he carries between intelligence and fragility, two qualities that feel inseparable in everything he touches.
