Smart, touching, and a thought provoking movie
10 March 2014 | by See all my reviews

I watched this film for two reasons. One being Emily Blunt, she is great in every role she plays. And two because it had that feel good look to it. I was pleasantly surprised with how touching this movie can be. What helps is the incredible chemistry between the actors. The 90 minutes really fly by. I could have watched another few hours of the three leads just chatting. Its also not your typical romantic story which is a nice change up. What I also really enjoyed was it humanized each character. They all have major flaws in which it makes it difficult to root for any of them at certain points. The actors did such a phenomenal job helping us invest our emotion into each of the relationships that are presented. Its not predictable and not typical. This is also my first exposure to Lynn Shelton. I am now looking forward to checking out her other works as well. Overall surprisingly sweet and heartwarming movie. 9.2/10
