Wilson, the title character embodied by actor
Woody Harrelson in this dark independent comedy, exists above the formulaic
aspects of the narrative. Grumpy and prone to angry rants against the state of
humanity, Wilson
is also lonely and often breaks all social boundaries in order to make
connections with any random person he encounters, making him a contradiction of
personality quirks. And yet it all somehow works, and Harrelson is able to
flesh the man out in a way that feels sincere, even if the film that this
character exists in often has even less of an idea what to do with him than the
strangers he encounters. In the end, this feels like a comedic character study
lacking clear direction, and as a result it often reaches for formulaic
resolution to unique set-ups.
