Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Amy Adler Dana (Analeigh Tipton of the darling Damsels in Distress movie) has just moved to Manhattan for her first major job in publishing. Fortunately, she has an old college friend and her husband to bunk with, while she looks for a place of her own. Not wanting to let any grass grow, the yoga-loving wife desires to matchmake immediately and introduce Dana to a mutual friend, Peter (Jake McDorman). But, first, our publishing gal has a day at work. Ugh, times ten. As she exits the elevator, another man is entering it, obviously taking his box of files. HE'S been fired and Dana is taking his place. The big boss introduces D then retreats to his "bunker office". Very miffed, the two employees in charge refuse to show her what to do and end up locking her out in the stairwell. Then, its time for the date with Peter. Ouch. Although they "sort of" like the looks of each other, Peter's cynical nature is all too clear and Dana ends up in tears, bolting from the scene. Can this truly be the start of a Manhattan Love Story? YES! As is typical, I am behind everyone else and just saw my first show. It's adorable and I want more, more, more. How I love the actors, especially Tipton, who was a real charmer in Damsels in Distress, a Whit Stilman film. Then, the setting is great, for there is no place like Manhattan on the planet. At least, the beautiful views this show sports. Add on the great costumes, script (a mixture of lines and streams of consciousness) and a lively direction. Therefore, PLEASE ABC! SAY IT Ain't SO! We romcom lovers NEED shows like this to maintain our sanity and zest for life!
SnoopyStyle Dana (Analeigh Tipton) is new in NYC pushed on a blind date by her friend Amy. Peter (Jake McDorman) works at the family trophy company. She's a sweet single girl in the city and he's unable to have a proper relationship. The show also has the internal monologues of both lead characters.Peter is so unlikeable at the beginning that it throws the show into a tail spin for me. Dana is the standard flaky single girl. Then there is the tired monologue. It tries to be so cute that it actually hurts. Tipton is a perfectly good actress for that character she usually plays. I liked her in 'Crazy, Stupid, Love.' In a better written show, she may even be good. This is not that show.
jazebelle Since the debut of new sitcoms this fall, this has to be my favourite. Despite having a typical story line - love, relationships, dating, single-life, uncertainty etc, the characters do it well and bring much life to the show. Analeigh Tipton can actually act. And that's enough to drive this show toward a good direction. Her sweet girl next-door, awkward personality relates to many young ladies, myself included. Some of the typical features of the show annoys me slightly, but it's overshadowed by the two main characters. The supporting characters seem miss matched and have close to zero chemistry. But it's both Dana and Peter whom we're keen to see. However the only way this show will succeed is character development and little bit more background for viewers to understand the characters better. What works though, is the 6-degree-seperation in how everyone seems to be related to one another, but still character development has to be added and needs to be written well, so this little gem will take off. I've read that it's likely to be canceled and I'd be disappointed if it were true. It's charming, funny, no-so-fresh, light hearted and just the right kinda show you want to see to have a tingly feel good sensation after a heavy day.
cuckkoo After watching the first episode I was pleasantly surprised. It lent a totally new perspective to the RmCom genre. Pretty much a game changer. It had all the signs of becoming a great show. The leads are lovable and not some people you can possibly dislike and the supporting characters are portrayed brilliantly. The internal monologues are intelligent and gives you a comic insight into the mechanics of a relationship and will hopefully, down the road, explore everything involved in a budding and mature relationship. Perspective of both the sexes when offered on the same situation will no doubt be the high point of this series and it will be interesting to watch as to how both sexes handle a specific issue. what they both think and what they both do. It will be interesting and entertaining. i look forward to watching the show.
