LEAVES OF GRASS: LEAVE THIS GRASSI hate to harsh anyone's mellow, but I just did not enjoy Leaves Of Grass as much as I thought I would. I guess the reason I thought I would enjoy it was because I'm a huge fan of Edward Norton and in this movie he plays twin brothers, one, who although bright is pretty much a backwards pothead living in a small redneck town dealing with rival thugs. The other, is an established professor who is tricked into returning to his small-town roots upon hearing about the death of his brother. Surprisingly, Susan Sarandon makes an appearance as the boy's mother. While she is usually a highlight in any film, her talent goes pretty well wasted here. 
The rest of the movie turns into a redneck caper movie making some really huge leaps of imagination and plot, forcing a romantic interest with frankly a disappointing ending. The twin work was nowhere near as good as what they did in The Social Network, and in some places was just pretty darn silly. These are the times, that I am really happy that Redbox offers dollar movies. I still adore Edward Norton, but this is nowhere near his best work, in fact it may be his worst.
