If you feel particularly in the mood for a good drama thriller with quality actors, The Paperboy is one you should put on the list. Written and directed by the same guy who did Dexter, you’d expect that it’s a total hit. But, you’ll be surprised with the plot. The movie revolves around a guy who is in the prison, Hillary Van Wetter (John Cusack), who is about to face a death sentence for killing the sheriff of the town in Florida. While in prison, he’s been communicating with a woman over the letters, with Charlotte Bless (Nicole Kidman). As any woman who is writing to a man in prison, after a while she starts believing that she’s in love with him and gets her hands busy in order to get him out of there, because she believes he’s innocent. So, she calls two reporters Ward Jansen (Matthew McConaughey) and Yardley Acheman (David Oyelowo) to help her prove his innocence. As the two of them travel back to Wards childhood town, he gets a chance to reunite with his younger brother, Jack (Zack Efron), who also gets in the mix to help them. Since he’s pretty young and his hormones are racing to his head, Jack falls for hot and sensual Charlotte instantly. And so, their confusion begins, as well as their adventure in this 107 minute long drama thriller.
