Barry Munday (2010)

[5]

A womanizer (Patrick Wilson in the title role) loses his testicles right before being slapped with a paternity suit in this soft comedy. Seeing his situation as his last chance at fatherhood, Barry gets to know his baby mama and alleged wackiness ensues. When serendipity plays such a big part in an otherwise character-driven movie, it can be a tough pill to swallow. I never really understood what made Barry tick, unless he was really as shallow and stupid as he comes across. Judy Greer makes the most of her co-starring role. Chloe Sevigny, Jean Smart, Cybill Shepherd, Malcolm McDowell, and Billy Dee Williams are along for the ride.
