"Imaginary Heros" takes a long, hard look at a middle class family of five which, following the suicide of a son, goes into a sort of interminable funk with family members wandering around in a fog coping with grief while we sit wondering it they're ever going to get the "dys" out of their dysfunction. Weaver registers an excellent performance in what is a reasonably good but not great indie flick by a promising auteur. Most likely to be appreciated by younger adult audiences who, like the auteur, have not sufficient life experience to see the absence of depth in the characters. However, may not play well wit the 30 something crowd who have just reached the age of disillusionment. Worth a rental for anyone into a big dose of depressing minimalism with nihilistic overtones. (B-)
