Alfie

I almost forgot I had seen this film a few weeks ago, but it didn't leave much of an impression of me, save Sienna Miller (probably the only reason I considered checking it out). Alfie is a self-involved, shallow character, and the circumstances that unfold to make him a more mature person who thinks less of his needs and more of others never really rang true. Then again, most films where the main character breaks the 4th wall seldom produce a convincing character that seems capable of true, lasting change and personal growth as the film draws to an end.

I give it 2 stars, or a grade of C.
