Aardvark follows Josh Norman (Zachary Quinto), a troubled man who has lived in the shadow of his brother Craig (Jon Hamm) for so long he starts seeing that shadow everywhere. After experiencing a series of hallucinations involving Craig – an actor, and the star of a popular TV drama – Josh places himself in the care of Emily (Jenny Slate), a young therapist. Emily wades deeper and deeper into Josh's psychologically-troubled world and suddenly finds herself falling for the famous brother. Caught between the family dysfunction and her alluring neediness, is Emily willing to risk her career and reputation all for the sake of love?

Shoaf builds to an odd crescendo and then mocks his audience for finally taking the leap with him. It's an audacious move that brings the third act to a grinding halt and really had me wondering what the director was attempting to accomplish.

Zachary Quinto as the amiable, aimless and psychologically-troubled Josh who deals with hallucinations in a small town America and Jenny Slate as his new therapist Emily are begging for better material to work with.

This movie is monotonous. [Full Review in Spanish]

Aardvark is not without some merit. The actors all do credible jobs in their underwritten roles, and the directing style suits the dramatic nature of the story. But the awkward, stiff writing and lack of characterization make all that effort pointless.

A clichd indie movie starring three actors who are always welcome on screen, but fails to adequately use any of them
