I had put off seeing this film for far too long. Initially the trailer looked great, with an amazing cast, and great director. Something just kept me from seeing it all these years. Likely culprit: ROMCOM. After seeing every episode of VEEP, and most of The Sopranos. I finally geared up to watch this film, on HBOgo. But, I failed to do so once again, always thinking I'd put it on when I couldn't decide what else to watch. Failed two times. Now I did finally watch this film, this past week in fact, on a flight. This says nothing to the quality of the film, as it was among some amazing film choices. What does speak to the quality of the film is how engaged I was throughout, on a ten inch screen. The acting and casting in this film is impeccable, to say nothing of the script and direction. I found myself tearing up a few times in fact. I won't bore you more with plot synopsis, except to say how refreshing it was to get a film about second romances, all the while losing the fantasy aspect of most romantic comedies. Having Julia Louis-Dreyfus assuming the "male" character I thought was genius. She and James have great chemistry that builds throughout the film. Everything works in the film, above all the honesty throughout. The title of the film perfectly sums up this review.

There are movies and there are films - Enough Said is wonderful little film that focuses on coming into later-adulthood in a really marvelous manner.As with most of independent films, Enough Said is a verbose film that focuses on the characters and their real life struggles in a slightly exaggerated but entertaining fashion.Julia Louis-Dreyfus plays Eva, a slightly faulted divorcée and single mother, soon to be empty-nester, struggling in the dating scene for the over forty. When she meets a nice man named Albert at a party, played by James Gandolfini, things seem to take a turn for the positive. At the same party, she meets a worldly poet (Catherine Keener) who becomes a new masseuse client and friend. Things become complicated when the degree of separation between these three characters is revealed to be closer than first thought.If anyone has ever told you that a 'coming of age' story can only be for those burgeoning adults facing the real world, they are mistaken. Enough Said is a coming of age story for grown-ups who face the next step of adulthood.Enough Said is smartly written to examine the trials of true adulthood in a comprehensive manner. Topics typically resigned for fleeting character traits are instead used as wholly centered subjects of this film, specifically: parenthood, long term marriage, and divorce. And yet, despite being typically depressing subject matters, Enough Said keeps the film light with smart humor.If a film is to use its characters as a tool for a film, the characters need to be complex, original and endearing. Enough Said fits the bill and Julia Louis-Dreyfus shines alongside James Gandolfini. Neither character is perfect or flawless, but are portrayed with real life complexity.Enough Said is dialogue driven so those hoping to find more action and 'events' might want to skip this film. Adults who want a great film should check it out, as there are only positive things to be said for this little gem.Please check out our website for complete reviews of all the recent releases.

Enough Said is a naturalistic, bittersweet romantic comedy drama about two middle aged divorced people who start a relationship. Julia Louis-Dreyfus is Eva a divorcée with daughter just about to go to college.She meets Albert played by James Gandolfini in a party who also has a daughter who is about to go to college. They begin a relationship in a nervous manner but they get on well together.The complication is that Eva is a masseur and one of her client is Albert's ex-wife played by Christine Keener and she always complains about her ex-husband. Eva soon realises that its Albert who she is talking about and instead of keeping her distance is intrigued to hear more about her complaints. The problem is that subconsciously she later carries that negative attitude herself when she is with Albert and he picks up on the negative vibes.This is an easy going film. It will mainly appeal to an older audience, there is a lot of talking, little by way of action and it does feel like that these are natural people interacting with each other. It is a slight film but kudos to the actors for taking a risk with this independent project.

As a young man, I love my romantic comedies to be raucous and sex-crazy, but however I do like my mature romantic comedies every once in awhile and Enough Said is well-suited for that category. Not only I became interested due to the hype, this is James Gandolfini's second-to-last-role, which he completely nailed. The movie reaches sitcom territory at times, but the movie is undeniably charming and even bittersweet. The dialog feels very natural and the chemistry between the two main leads is through the roof.This film is essentially about two middle-aged people falling in love. There is Eva who is divorced and is worried about sending her only child away to college. Then there is the like-minded Albert who is a little round, but seems to be a very laidback gentleman. When Eva becomes a masseuse and a friend of Albert's ex-wife, Eva begins to question her decisions.The acting is unquestionably fantastic. Julia-Louis Dreyfus really need more film roles because she killed it as the quirky Eva who is trying to find some love. James Gandolfini plays a man outside of his type. Instead of a toughened, gangster-like character, his character is more likable and more curmudgeonly. Toni Collette does a good job as Eva's friend and Catherine Keener delivers a fine performance as Albert's ex-wife who always complains to Eva about him.Overall, Enough Said is a charming and surprisingly original entry in the field of romantic comedies. A rom com that is universally loved is a rare sight and this film happens to be one. It's charming, poignant, and even bittersweet. The realistic feeling and natural dialog is also what further enhances the film. I was checking out this film mainly because of James Gandolfini, but I'm glad I was able to watch this beautiful film about middle-aged romance. I rate this film 9/10.
