Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Merolliv 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.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

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

julielaine When I clicked on this movie on Netflix, the title and the poster art made it seem like a light, silly film. While watching I realized it was dramatic and had a lot of layers to it. I really enjoyed it and the acting was amazing. I'd only seen the lead as a quirky supporting actress in films, never the lead. It was quite refreshing to see her in a different light and watch her go through every emotion. I fell in love with the husband, will be googling him for sure! He played his part really well. It probably could have used a bit more humour in the film but as a drama, it was well done. There was one awkward scene where I really felt for the characters. Kind of like, we've all had that moment in our lives that we regret and do not define us. I'm not sure how others felt about this movie but I feel it is worth a watch.

francescogiacobbe I was completely confused by this film. All I could make out was a wealthy, bored housewife sabotaging her own life in the most ridiculous way she could think of. This could be interpreted as attention seeking from an iPhone addicted husband or to escape the dissatisfaction of her monotonous, repetitive life, but really who knows.Directed by Jill Soloway (Six Feet Under; Transparent) and starring popular sitcom stars Kathryn Hahn (Parks and Recreation) and Josh Radnor (How I Met Your Mother) it is no wonder that this film feels amateurish and far-fetched, as many American sitcoms are. The film centers around a housewife living in an affluent part of L.A., who befriends a young prostitute and eventually invites her to live with her family. A ridiculous pretense to begin with, reality is lost in the smog of LA and the marijuana smoke. The central theme of the film, early marriage boredom, is an intriguing one and could have made an excellent film highlighting the hurdles that modern marriages must overcome in the technological age. The casting is actually good, Kathryn Hahn plays the part of a borderline depressed housewife convincingly, but the script and the screenplay are overly complicated and abstract. This clumsy and disjointed film, drifts from one idea to the next without links, and much like a drug addled university student loses itself completely. By the end I found myself laughing at the scenarios which unfolded, from jokes about abortions to a group of seemingly close friends showing a complete lack of interest in one of them ruining his marriage in front of their eyes.

zetes A charming, touching indie dramedy. I watched it mainly because I really like comedian Kathryn Hahn. I've loved her presence as a character actress since she popped up in Step Brothers a few years back, and she's stolen scenes in movies such as Wanderlust and TV shows such as Parks & Recreation since then. I'd heard it was a bad film, but I thought it was pretty good. Hahn stars as a wife and mother. Her marriage (to Josh Radnor) isn't bad, necessarily, but their sex life has kind of died. One night, on a whim, she decides to have a couples date with her best friend at a strip club (her friend swears that it gets her husband's motor running). There she meets a young stripper played by Juno Temple, and she becomes a little obsessed with the girl afterward. Not sexually, exactly, though there may be an element of that. It's kind of a motherly attention, mixed with a deep curiosity regarding the girl's highly sexual lifestyle. When she finds the girl outside of work, she's basically homeless, so Hahn takes her home, hoping to maybe glean some of her secrets. There isn't much of a plot. It's mostly just a film about people. It really gives Hahn, who is in general a supporting player, a chance to shine, and, man, does she ever. This is a fantastic performance. Temple is quite good, too. The men in the picture are a little underdeveloped. If Radnor had been more of a character, the film might have been great. As it is, it's pretty good.

cooperjoeseph5 This is a film that irks me because parts of it put me in the middle. I don't like to be indecisive. Some parts hit me harder than others. I just did not really relate to wealthy young people who like in Silver Lake. I wanted to, and I tried hard but I just could not. I understood Kathryn Hahn stress and issues but they way she acted it just seemed like she was suffering from first-world problems. It could have been acted in a way that would make me feel bad for her or at least relate to her, but I didn't. I get it. Rich white people take small issues and make them big. That got across but not in a way that moved me. It just seemed redundant. Like the themes were lazily thrown at you. Like "Hey, strippers have sex, they might even have sex with you if they're drunk enough" Like OK, got it. I probably liked Juno Temple's character the best, because I felt that it was the most believable. I think that, despite the fact that overall I liked it, these kinds of films should not be made anymore. Who really cares about suburban strife, make movies about people with real problems, like people in Darfur. Jeez
