A Real Pain

Running time: 90 mins

Genre: Comedy, Drama

Directed by: Jesse Eisenberg

Release Date: 08/01/2025

Starring: Kieran Culkin, Jesse Eisenberg, Olha Bosova

Benji and David travel to Poland to pay respects to their Jewish grandmother. No sooner are they on the road, they realise why they don't spend much time together anymore. Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin dazzle in their roles as the familial odd-couple, trading witty barbs and sobering ruminations on mid-adulthood growing pains, in this deftly scripted film full of humour and hope.
