Precocious, bohemian teenager Placid Lake, finishes high school and decides to do the one thing that will annoy his new age parents the most--go straight! With a few weeks spent reading a library of self-help manuals, Placid has it all sorted out--and he has the haircut and the cheap suit to prove it. Can Placid Lake retire his rage in the pursuit of beige; embrace conformity and leap on the fast track to corporate success. Will his 'brainiac' friend Gemma be able to talk him out of this economic rationalist madness? And will poor Doug and Sylvia survive the ignominy of having a son with a burgeoning future in insurance? Never underestimate the evil of banality.
Leave your thoughts about The Rage in Placid Lake.
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerLee makes an engagingly laid-back lead and a bespectacled Rose Byrne is adorable as the geeky girl-next-door. |
| Shadows on the WallRich ClineThere's an amusingly askance approach to the whole coming-of-age process that keeps us engaged. |
| Boston HeraldPaul ShermanPresents the business world as a caricature without bringing fresh comic twists to a much-lampooned subject. |
| Jam! MoviesJim SlotekA feel-good movie with some enjoyably deranged turns. |
| Toronto StarPeter HowellWatching this movie is a bit like going to a dance where the drummer can't keep a steady beat. You think you should be laughing, but you just can't quite bring yourself to. |
