A wanna-be Woody Allen type movie, but maybe only Woody Allen, can do "Woody Allen" well. Just not funny, witty clever, or insightful enough to make it worthwhile. And neither of the leads are all that good. The male lead in particular, A wanna-be Woody Allen type movie, but maybe only Woody Allen, can do "Woody Allen" well.

Preposterous start that steers into realms of sitcom reality as the movie progresses. The cast is winsome although without any deep believability or motivational foundation. It is too long at the start and too short at the end. Yet, it has Preposterous start that steers into realms of sitcom reality as the movie progresses. The cast is winsome although without any deep believability or motivational foundation. It is too long at the start and too short at the end.

Ugh, the manic pixie dream girl, boring and overdone and not particularly believable for adults. There is a real fake cutsie-pie thing going on that feels contrived.

There is a real fake cutsie-pie thing going on that feels contrived. There is literally a scene with a grown woman standing in jammies on the stairs in her parents house (where she lives). She also often appears in pigtails. How vulnerable and cute... Sorry. This movie is another extremely self-conscious Jennifer Westfeldt attempt that, surprise surprise, stars herself. Shared theme in her work: precious pretentiousness that lacks depth (but thinks it's real deep). Expand
