The movie title "Wonder Boys" gives little away about the story. No it is not a story of little boys playing football or genius orphans, the movie is about a struggling divorced writer professor who is struggling to find purpose in his writing and his love life and it is through his student that he finds it.

The main role is performed by Michael Douglas and my word what a performance. Although the movie did win an Oscar for Bob Dylan's song hopefully it would be remembered for Douglas's acting more than anything. If it were me i would have nominated Douglas for an Oscar for his acting. 

The star studded cast also includes Robert Downing Jr., who performs the role of a struggling gay editor/publisher, young and beautiful Katie Holmes and fresh face of Tobey Maguire.

A really nice movie to watch. Michael Douglas, hats off to you for truing down Katie Holmes moves on you and for your fine acting sir. Young Tobey played his part well and Robert Downing Jr. was amazing and funny as always.
