‘Finnegan’s Foursome’ Review: Edward Burns’ Spiky-Quaint Sports Dramedy Is a Tale of Family Therapy Through Golf
"Finnegan’s Foursome" is his 16th feature, and he’s still doing that shaggy-likable, spiky-quaint, semi-low-budget Edward Burns dramedy thing — the script that’s talky and kind of funny, though in a way that often sounds like a script; the camerawork that’s smoothly tethered to the functional; the acting that hovers between lively and broad. The style Burns works in is now closer to television than movies, and given that "Finnegan’s Foursome" is getting a streaming release (starting today), you could say it’s a minor indie movie that has found its rightful home.
