Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

lindsey_n I can't understand for the life of me why this movie has such a low rating! I went into this movie not expecting too much.. I don't mind Andy Samberg and Rashida Jones so I thought I'd give it a try. First off, don't watch this movie if you're looking for something full of laughs. It's not supposed to be something that has you in stitches. I thought it was a beautiful, well acted story of love and friendship. At times it was frustrating, heartbreaking, amusing and heartwarming. It made me smile and it made me sad. Both Samberg and Jones were pretty phenomenal in their acting in this movie. This movie stuck me as a more intelligent, realistic romance for those of us who are over the Nicholas Sparks sap. I'd recommend giving this movie a chance, I'm glad I did.

zee This film did nothing for me, and the 90 minutes I spent with it felt like twice that time.Part of the problem for me, possibly, was I just watched Liberal Arts and Your Sister's Sister, which were much better written, had more wit, and had less dull traditional views and a few minor insights to impart.Part of the problem is I just don't get the appeal of Jesse. He's not good-looking. He's a loser. He has no paycheck. He's acting like he's 18 but he's in his 30's. He's not particularly bright. Unless this guy has amazing hidden sexual talents (though these were never hinted at, and there were opportunities to do so), I just don't get the appeal. That more than one woman (all lovely to look at) seems interested in him shocks me. Zero women should be interested in him. I'm used to such inexplicably attractive loser male characters being written by male writers, but it's a shock to see women writing this too.Initially Celeste seems the better bet, but she ends up being irritating too, and what the heck is her job supposed to be? Is that a real job? Maybe the writers need to hang out somewhere other than Hollywood to get a sense of how real people earn their money.It's a movie about two people I'd never date, never be friends with, would cross the street to avoid (the masturbation of tiny phallic object isn't even sophomoric. It's junior high humor and they do it REPEATEDLY. Save me.) The only character who has any appeal is the pop star character. I liked how she was written to have hidden depths. The only scene I found at all funny was the bad first date with the photographer. And the soundtrack irritated me.And in the end, this movie said nothing new about relationships. Yeah, we get stuck with wrong people and it's hard to leave a marriage, but this shouldn't be news to anyone over the age of 18.Unlikeable characters doing very little, slowly, to irksome music. Not a good way to spend your precious, finite time.

Dunham16 Town would he moral of most romantic comedies is people meant to stay together should stick it out and people not meant to stay together should find an amicable way to soon live their own lives as independent people. This story, often more moving than funny though billed as a comedy, tells of a divorcing couple not able to seriously consider either societally normal option. Except for the two leads, the large ensemble cast is a delightful and fascinating mix of well played Los Angeles ditzy Yuppies, all of whom have made what would seem bizarre life choices in small town America, yet all of whom seem happy doing what they do and setting up their romance they way the seriously want to set them up. These two, though seemingly sociable, good looking young people all their friends want to have in their lives, are written for fiction as barely, whether in the backstory before the opening credits or the ever after while the final credits are rolling, never get it together at any level higher than cranky, fussing kindergartners not able to stay in the playgroup until time out or snack or nap would normally be called. Whateverr the writers want them to do in the next scene seems logical only to themselves, irritatingly destructive to the other person in the couple, and likely to cause their mates to cut them out of the next socials until they get a grip, to put it mildly. Any sequence of events would work, but here is the one the writers and editors seem to have chosen. They have already filed for divorce despite him not able to earn a living or find public aid or private support and her not able to communicate with anyone on a human level meaning sheshouldn't to to work alone, shouldn't be on the street or in the community alone and shouldn't be home alone. They next try to go through their daily routine as if still a couple despite going home at night and getting up in the morning as if living separate lives in separate homes. As he can get and sponge off any girl looking for romance and she can get any date until they face each other for their first conversation, they keep bumping into each other in public jealous rages for no reason they can explain. As he wants a baby without marrying the girl or being able to support her, and she wants normalcy despite pushing every interested man away, they seem to feel the urge to justify themselves to the other without believing they ever can. The final scenes have them breathing easy over their divorce complete without the final moments suggesting anything will change in the foreseeable future.

SnoopyStyle Rashida Jones & Andy Samberg are Celeste & Jesse. They are best friends who are getting divorced, except they want to stay friend.Ari Graynor & Eric Christian Olsen are their best friends Beth & Tucker who are getting married. They can't understand Celeste & Jesse's relationship. "It's weird." For most of this movie, everybody is annoying. Celeste is a know-it-all. Jesse is a slacker loser. The people they meet are all douche-bags and drug dealers, both friends & strangers. It is a whole hour of HELL watching this movie full of annoying self obsessed people.Emma Roberts is a pop princess Riley client of Celeste. At the beginning, she is yet another annoying character in the movie. However her character turns it around. She calls Celeste on her arrogance, "Contempt prior to investigation". This breaks Celeste down to her core, and she spirals down. Until Riley comes to her rescue again, this time commiserating over failed relationships.Riley is truly the big emotional catalyst. Only she needed to save this movie earlier. The "Contempt..." line comes 1 hour into the movie. Before that, it was stuck in emotional neutral. That's way too long.
