There's an all-timer of a Thankless Girlfriend role for Bryce Dallas Howard, who pops up occasionally to provide Wells comfort or to tell him he's losing touch with Who He Is, and a series of red herring supporting characters who exist mostly to run into the room with important plot developments and then disappear McConaughey himself is fine, one supposes, he is mostly in disguise under his baldness and his flab, doing the best he can to provide some verve to this dull character.

The Danny Brown-featuring "Frankie Sinatra" is an annoying carnival-barker anthem that sounds ripped from the Big Beat era of the mid-to-late 90s (as Wildflower's lead single, it also served as a very Avalanches-y red herring that suggested the album would be much worse than it turned out); Biz Markie's gourmand-braggadocio on "The Noisy Eater" doesn't fare better, a goofy mid-album cacophony that's reminiscent of the literal car-crash "Mashin' on the Motorway," from DJ Shadow's 2002 effort The Private Press.
