This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Honestly this movie had some good funny bits in it. I laughed out loud a few times. However, it's just really sad. The ending sucks. There's no resolution, really. Just a waste of an hour and 40 minutes.

Given the names in the cast, I expected more from this. There's nothing to like when the protagonist, to whom the audience should relate, is such a child, literally throwing a tantrum at the end. I champion independent movies being made, but this is one that could have been left on the shelf.

This is a movie that stays on point with our protagonist Adam (Justin Long) throughout the entirety of the film. Its about the nature of relationships and how not all of them end after they end so to speak. Watch this film from Adam's point of view and it suddenly becomes engrossing because you can never guess how someone in this situation will react to a combination of jealousy, rage, longing, confusion, and love. The complexity of panicked emotions that accompany heavy romantic relationships are showcased here very well. This is a great addition to those who love serious but also witty relationship films. Justin Long is a wonderful actor who is able pull off a detailed rendition of a hopeless romantic on the verge of self destruction. If you were entertained after seeing this look up and watch Justin Long's other film " Comet ". You shouldn't be disappointed!
