Trailer: Why Stop Now

Odd film I wasn’t expecting from Jesse Eisenberg, even thought I’m sure he will be great, as per usual.

Eisenberg stars as a piano prodigy who needs to get his mother, played by Melissa Leo into rehab on the day of his big audition. Things go sour once her drug dealer, played by the awful Tracy Morgan comes into the picture.

Simply for the reason of Morgan, I hate this film already, he makes everything bad.

There were mixed reviews from Sundance, and it seems like the film might jump all over the place from the trailer.

Why Stop Now hits theaters on August 17, 2012.

Synopsis:

The bittersweet story of Eli Smith, a piano prodigy, and his mother Penny who despite her cheerful, loving disposition, struggles with drug addiction. On the day of his audition for a prestigious music program, Eli’s mother plans to enter rehab, but a glitch in the system forces them to enlist the help of an unlikely ally, her drug dealer Sprinkles. Circumstances conspire that turn them into a comical yet determined band of collaborators who are forced to deal with their internal demons over the course of the day.
