Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

monesque I can't believe this tanked. Look, here's the trouble with rom-coms. They are SO predictable. Meet cute, have problems, get back together, live happily ever after. They really have to be exceptional to get past that predictable aspect. It's been done to death. I sense a new direction in some modern versions. This is one such. It doesn't hew to old standards of morality and Pollyanna visions of reality. In 1930, it would've been banned. It's a bit vulgar. Standard morality is out the window. And yet, there is also a certain, uncomfortable realism here. Ignore that, though, whether you agree or not. What it is, is fresh, different, and exceptionally funny. The cast sells it all quite well, too.

Her-Excellency Have you ever literally cringed? I felt like doing so at many times during this film. Let's call it a movie, as I think 'film' should be reserved for something better.To begin, I WANTED to like it. I really never followed Rose Byrne, but I liked her in X-Men, and I have liked Anna Farris in a couple of things. The first twenty minutes or so however should have been a clear indication that I really wasn't going to, and I should have cut my losses then and there. But no. I watched until the sleep-inducing end.NONE of the characters are very likable although their unlikeablity ranges from mild unlikeability to extreme dislike. Nat (Rose Byrne's character) is a total witch and you get the idea that no matter who she is married to, that won't change. Her husband, played by Rafe Spall is the most likable, again, of unlikeable characters, and is portrayed as dumb, uninteresting and a moron sometimes. Simon Baker's character is just dull, uninteresting, and it felt like the actor was just calling his scenes in. Anna Farris looked pretty bad and her character was such a tremendous pushover you kind of wanted to slap her. Oh, and a special mention to Rafe Spall's character's best friend who should win an award for most annoying supporting character EVER. Note to the makers of this film: YOU CANNOT have a hit if most of your characters have almost no appeal whatsoever.The premise too was just bad-awful and you know it is a movie while watching it because in the real world no real person would act/react the way any of these characters acted in several of the scenes. The comedy itself wasn't HORRIBLE, it just wasn't really THERE. There are literally NO laugh-out-loud moments, although there are a couple of cute 'haha', funny scenes. Mostly though, again, you just feel as if you have to cringe in embarrassment for the fake (in every sense of the word) "people".The ending is so ... trite ... but fits the entirety of the movie well, in that nothing about it is any good.All in all, I wish I had skipped it.

cristikivu First of all, from a cinematic and storytelling point of view this movie is bad. It's incredibly predictable and all the humour is forced and unfunny in the end. I have honestly had 3 small laughs throughout the entire film.Second, in order to be "hip", which is to demolish anything remotely traditional or not up to date or just being the complete opposite for no reason whatsoever, the movie delivers a distasteful message: the institution of marriage is an outdated formal sham which has no purpose or sense.Today's society dwells upon political correctness and not offending minorities, but at the same time ignores minorities or even majorities (depending on the country) to whom concepts like marriage or religion are still something important or sacred.Yes, people who are not happy with each other should not be together. At the same time, people who have known each other for 7 months and do not really know one another or have their relationship solely based on sex should not marry.Marriage is an institution which is based heavily on attraction and especially a preexistent strong enduring friendship between the two. Not everyone should get married. Only people who are also best friends, besides having obvious feelings of physical attraction, should be married.Even though this is just a mindless, commercial romantic comedy, the movie sadly speaks for this generation (which I am part of, but fortunately am not adhering to its principles - if any). If it were possible I would give this movie a -10.

dareent-amethyst This movie has failed at an attempt to be an entertaining romantic comedy. It is neither funny or romantic. I saw 'I give it a year' because my friend had told me its good, but I've known after only 10 minutes that its not. Frankly, i find it boring and predictable. The plot is somewhat unoriginal although i don't know where they got the idea from. Its slow paced, the dialogues are uninteresting and too long. The actors aren't believable and they, just like the writers and directors of this movie, seems like they haven't put a decent amount of effort into making this a watchable movie. There's also another thing that bothered me a lot, I'm not sure if its just me, but i hate Rose Byrne and Anna Farris' hair. The hair and makeup team certainly didn't do them any justice. Oh i also hate the use of curse words in this movie. Im not one who doesn't like hearing curse words, in fact i curse a lot, but there were way too much unnecessary use of curse words in this movie. Okay I'm done hating on this movie. Its not awful its just not so good (boring!)
