Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

I'm not usually a fan of romantic comedies as they tend to be clichéd, cheesy, and generally speaking, mindless. But this movie is none of that! I found it to be original and entertaining, and even thought provoking. And if you happen to a single person trying to understand why romantic relationships are so challenging, I think you will find the film to be educational in an amusing "laugh at ourselves" kind of way. That's all I can say without giving too much away! Brilliant writing and direction, great acting, and being from Los Angeles, I loved how the city was represented. I am very much looking forward to seeing Nathan Ives future films!

I might have given it an "8" but I wanted to counterbalance the "7's" it got from reviewers whose words heaped praise on the film yet who's number grades didn't match those words. I laughed a lot during this film. Dave, (Ross McCall) can't commit to buying a Chai latte and so his feeling queasy about staying with his girlfriend isn't all that surprising. It REALLY IS ABOUT HIM since Carrie (Joelle Carter) is just about perfect. What gives the story punch is the committee inside Dave's head who vote on whether or not to dump Carrie. The most vocal is Neil, a misogynistic philanderer who never expresses a tender feeling for anything. He gets the most lines but the others are quite funny as well. There's Dave's inner child, Dave's accountant voice, Dave's morbid fascination with death voice and a pretty blonde female, the only one, who is sensitive and is seeking (for Dave)a meaningful lasting relationship with a good woman. She gets voted down a lot. The way they trade insults is part of the fun. But the negative voices win out and Dave dumps a perfectly good (and also pretty) girlfriend. The movie then splits into what happens to these two characters concentrating more on Dave. Carrie has a series of bad dates the funniest of which is with a man who "falls" for her in the first ten minutes. Her reaction, out loud, is to say she's changing her address and phone number and it doesn't even stop him from gushing some more. There's also a Trekkie, and a really self-absorbed Yuppie. Dave goes into therapy and does some delving into his past where the trauma occurred which instigated all his fear. This is glossed over and while there may not have been time to cover it in more detail, the quickness of it made me not believe his transformation that he professes to in the final scene. I didn't want Carrie to believe him because I didn't see enough evidence to support the change. I won't give away the ending but I wound up accepting it. It wasn't the one I expected. I happen to have this same problem in my own life (fear of falling and committing) and so I had a keen interest in the outcome. I'm not sure I learned from the story but that goes more to the complexity of the problem than the effectiveness of the film. I was impressed with the quality of the production and acting. It didn't have an indie feel, more like a normal Hollywood movie. I hope it gets widely seen. I should add that Carrie had a committee as well but her "voices" weren't as amusing to watch. Perhaps the reason for that was that they didn't strike as many chords that exist out there in the real world. The closest was Carrie's inner child who wanted to be loved and held. There was a woman in a straight jacket who was too over the top, a black chick who was too cold and calculating, and a hippie (male) who was so ephemeral and wispy that there wasn't a single utterance of his that showed even the slightest knowledge of what life is. Being pathetic isn't funny to me. I was missing the biting humor that was frequent in Dave's inner world.

Really enjoyed this film, it's a window into the mind of how guys (and girls) think. Dialogue is sharp and witty. Chemistry between the two lead actors was great. I'm originally from LA and it's kind of a postcard to Los Angeles as well. Some beautiful shots of downtown and what look like Silverlake. It nicely avoided the cliché' beach scenes so typical of films shot in LA.It was great seeing 'Janice' from friends in a more serious role. She plays a wonderful therapist in the film.A little slow here and there, but not bad. Over all I would definitely recommend it.

I loved this movie!! My husband (of 11 years) and I watched this together and we both loved it! Usually he is all about the action movies and I have to twist his arm to watch a rom-com. We really laughed A LOT during this film. It makes you appreciate the crazy crap we go through to find love. We ALL have those voices in put head that make falling in love a bit like a roller coaster ride, and it's fun to see it play out on the big screen. The character development is fun to watch and as the story unfolds you really get a sense for why commitment phobes act like they do, and more importantly how they can grow and change. Such a great film for both sexes... Definitely not just a "chick flick". Take your boyfriend/ husband and laugh together!
