Amateur movie with Big budget

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This movie was kinda dumb. Had no great message and pretty much no likeable characters

You' ll understand the name of the title by the end of the movie. Cheesy and cliche' at times but brings clearity to what we call life."Life is not meant for thinking"

My biggest problem with this movie was Laura Ramsey's character and performance. I thought her acting was a little weak and she came off as cold and condescending most of the time. She really rubbed me the wrong way. OK, so, a young, attractive woman marries a 72 year old rich man, then after 5 years of marriage, when her husband dies, she is left nothing. Confronted with having to work for a living, the woman decides to have sex with both the husband's Son and the Son's best friend rather than move on and use her college degree. She eventually begins a relationship with one of them in order to financially secure her future and somehow, everyone is OK with it in the end. I saw this movie as Ramsey's Character being a manipulative devil of a woman. It's not really a comedy at all. She didn't seem to grieve at all for her husband, who also just happened to be a multi millionaire, when he died. In the end, after everything, she gets a free pass and keeps the farm by seducing Wilson's Character. Wow. I find that to be a little too tragic for a comedy. It's sad and emotionally draining to see her mentally and sexually manipulate every man in the film.

I think what the disappointment this film has been receiving from the vast majority of it's audience stems from expectation. I like most people was expecting a simple light hearted comedy that would provide a few cheap laughs about weed and farts, however this film took a different course from the classic stoner film and attempted to comment on society.By 'attempted' I feel the ideology of the film wasn't clear, it kept jumping around, almost trying to tackle too many issues. This doesn't mean the film didn't have profound moments, it did, but they were damaged by the confused nature of their origin within the story - for instance there was a moment in the film where an Amish man tells Amy Poehler's character that she can't have babies because she doesn't believe in God, this is just one of a few confusing parts of the film.The casting was a bit odd for the film, although I thought the acting was brilliant I think the audiences that would tend to watch a Zach Galifianakis or Owen Wilson film would get bored with this rather slow paced, almost preachy not amazingly funny comedy.One of the biggest positives of the film was the way it was shot, this was a pleasant surprise with lighting on some of the wides that looked like a Gregory Crewdson photograph.Overall I think this was a nice little film, overlooked by it's target audience and reaching an audience that won't have the patience to appreciate it's story even if it is a little wobbly in places - definitely worth a watch if you ever get the time.
