Yes, as others commented, the movie is superbly done and Cranston is as always a fantastic actor. The problem I had with this movie and its premise is the same I have whenever people introvert and wander into themselves and leave their surroundings: it may be sometimes healthy and prove certain independence but it is totally self-absorbed and selfish. Howard Wakefield may be "cool" by freeing himself from all his suburban self but he still depends on his house and its leftovers, he becomes a parasite where he once was a provider. And there is no consideration at all for the pain he may have caused those around him. This is the problem I have with his withdrawal... And when he returns he expects to be welcomed as a hero, when, in my mind, he betrayed and abandoned his loved ones.
