Too much of everything

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

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

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Josh (Jay Baruchel) has had struggles with dating for quite some time but now his tribulations are close to the end when he meets Lucy (Katie Findlay). At first, Josh and Lucy's relationship does not go smoothly with Lucy's roommate bringing out the border patrol and arguing on national news about boyfriend's sleeping over. Lucy decides to move in with Josh but not before a major remodel to impress her friends. Despite the bumpy beginning, Josh and Lucy get serious and Lucy has to go through a serious of training in order to meet Josh's mom Patti (Robin Duke) and stepdad Tom (Mark McKinney) with the help of Josh's sister Liz (Britt Lower). Mike (Eric Andre) does not approve of Josh's new girl at first as he no longer has time to hang out anymore. Mike starts a cult that is for guys only, but when Lucy sneaks Josh has to intervene. He arranges for all of them to hang out in a boring mine bar that traps Mike and Lucy together with miners. Eventually, Mike approves of Lucy, and it's Josh's turn to meet Lucy's parents. Lucy didn't always have the greatest relationship so is upset when Josh hits it off with Lucy's Mom (Julie White) and Dad (Mark Moses). Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com

I feel like there is way to much emphasis if something is odd or weird to immediately claim it is brilliant, mind blowing, and should be a huge success. I felt season 1 was a 4 or 5 (remember people there is a scale from 1-10 for a reason, if everything you rate is between 7-10 you clearly are from the new-math school of thought). Season 1 is a skit show, kudos to the book and to the writers, they make some interesting and hilarious metaphors, analogies, and straight up fantasy in the purest form, taking many things literally and ironically. But there is nothing to carry you through the season or touch your deepies. Season 2 grows on you, it deserves a solid 6 with a wink and a tug at a 7. They carry on with the antics and the characters develop,albeit very slowly. Either way there is a glimpse at something that may turn into a show with real meaning and heart. I hope that for this show, I hope it so hard.

This show is absolutely one of the stupidest things I have ever seen yet it is incredibly funny and insightful. It's not just a brain dead spoof show. The creators have put a lot of thought into the concept and execution. The cast included. It may seem a little extreme but who hasn't faced some of these emotions and felt that their world was going to end. People naturally have a tendency to overreact. All they have done is turned it into a literal representation. Each episode I find myself relating to his angst and uncertainty. It's ridiculous but comically realistic.And don't be confused into thinking it's a laugh riot as the humour is more intelligent than that. It won't be for everyone but everyone should be able to relate.

First off, stop reading about this show, just watch it, go in knowing nothing. I had never seen anything besides a couple random 15 second ads for the show that didn't make sense at the time, but now it all clicks. I have never laughed so hard at a premier of a show in my life and I was watching it by myself and sober (though I do think that might be the ideal way to watch this show as it somehow adds to it all).If you're a male in your 20s you will have no problem relating to this show, though everyone will find something to relate to just the further away you are from that benchmark the less you might relate. I'll admit I fall into that bucket and the show just hits everything on the head.I'll be very interested to see how this show progresses because it is so extremely novel one does fear it might run out things to cover. I've yet to see signs of that, but I'm only 4 episodes in. So we'll see, I remain hopeful, go watch it!
