Capsule Review: Running with Scissors
Problems abound in Ryan Murphy’s adaptation of Augusten Burroughs’s auto-biographical novel — from the cartoonish humor to an unappealing lead character overflowing with self-pity. A generally solid cast, however, prevents this comedy-drama from becoming a complete failure. Annette Bening, in particular, is outstanding as the poetess too immature and self-absorbed to raise a son.
