Purely Joyful Movie!

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

This feels like a middle-schooler tried to write a Woody Allen script. Dialogues are ripe with stuttering, unfinished sentences and in general feel like they're 100% improvised - by actors who failed improvisation class. One of the worst movies I ever watched (I actually hit STOP at halftime, something I pretty much never do), if this even classifies as "movie" and not "outtakes from high school impro class 101". Avoid.
