Simply A Masterpiece

Sadly Over-hyped

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

I really connected with this movie. It wasn't about two really hot good looking people in their 20's or 30's. Although I don't have children, as they were part of the plot, can relate to not being attracted to anyone. Lol. It gave you a sense of hope and very realistic about life and how other people's perceptions can affect our relationships. Overall it was surprisingly a feel good movie for me. Very realistic!

I was really looking forward to this film, mainly because I really liked director Holofcener's previous efforts, Walking & Talking & Please Give. However this to me came off as a trite, predictable sitcom episode guest-starring Dreyfus & Gandalfino doing their usual shticks. Hahaha.Particularly irritating are Dreyfus's constant mugging & over-acting to every situation in every scene in order,I guess, to please to her fams. Gandolfino mostly shrugs his way through his part, looking bored & maybe even a little embarrassed & never upstaging his co- star but never being very funny, either. This is like a contemporary vesion of those awful Bob Hope comedies they cranked out in the 60s & 70s when the star was far too old for his parts but his routines were still bankable with an ever-gullible public.

Great acting. Brilliant atmosphere.It is unlikely that this movie will give you pause or bring significant change into your life. But it probably will make you smile a lot because of it's likable (it's funny how IMDb automatically switches l-i-k-e-a-b-l-e to likable, even though both spellings are correct) and believable characters, and lighthearted humor. And it might help you relax and think of the good stuff for a while.Best served with a large bowl of icecream. (But a pizza will do, too ;) )Enjoy!

Omg, this was the most boring movie that I have seen in a very long time. Nothing happens, it's ridiculous! Thank goodness I saw it for free on HBOgo because I would have been so mad if I had actually paid money to see this unbelievable slow movie. Silly, silly, silly. The main characters are dumb smiling idiots, the one daughter of Eva is so wooden faced, they could have gotten a mannequin that looked more real. I mean this is worse than a high school play. I think that anyone that is entertained by this movie must have a very boring life. Yawn, jeez these two main actors are so above making a movie that says nothing, and I mean "nothing" Watching grass grow would have been more exciting!
