Fresh and Exciting
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.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
