Jodie Foster's The Beaver more complimentary than not

Well...many so called " movie pundit experts " thought because of Mel Gibson's recent ( and even past negative transgressions ) would effect Jodie Foster's movie The Beaver, the first time she has directed in 16 years, would have been been received in a negative light. But so far, most are saying it's a well told tale and that Gibson is good in the role. That's saying a lot, because whether what camp you decide to initially feel about Mel, it must be a halfway decent performance if people that loathe him say he good in the movie. By the way... Anton Yelchin is Jewish.
