sonny p @RT22950043 Nov 22, 2022 The movie suffers from a boring trajectory and mediocre acting but the script is formidable and regardless of their surroundings Greer and Gelman pull off an awkward and fascinating take on a disgruntled couple. Is it worth a watch? Certainly not. But it leaves you thinking as well as laughing See more Jan 13, 2022 This is a weird, awkward comedy that's more of a series of skits than a film with an actual plot. Some are quite funny (the seder); all are awkward to the max. There's a large amount of long shots and long takes here, so there's also a real artistry to the film.

Incredible. See more Jul 11, 2021 This was a refreshingly different movie full of unsympathetic characters who were so sorry that you started to rooting for them and the ending was very close to reality of quiet desperation. I thought it was Wes Anderson meets Todd Solodnz . The pace was off-putting. I had to watch it in sections over a few days but after watching I thought about it quite a bit.

This isn't a lovable loser this is an unstable abusive psychopath. Completely unlikable. Someone mentioned hes harmless- vandalizing cars and threatening to kill a woman kidnapping another and sexual assault of Cera s character aren't victimless crimes. Isn't that cinema 101? Give your character at least a crumb of charm or true vulnerability, not acting out narcissistic grief. Heck even Rizzo in Grease got her a minutes of authenticity. Michael Cera Judy Greer fantastic Nia Long adorable. Other bit players too. Direction good cinematography editing great but subject matter vomit knives diarrhea and brutal verbal/ psychological abuse towards women ( is he supposed to have Tourettes or something like Jack Nicholson in As Good As It Gets?- a great "tool" to have your character shit on women and men and elderly and be excused for it). This had all the ingredients of what makes a great movie except it didn't. Like another reviewer here I made a profile just to comment. See more Read all reviews
