Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

It is difficult to believe that a character played by Kristen Wiig actually existed. I suppose it could happen. This makes the story worth watching if for no other reason other than to find out how it turns out. The acting is good

Hateship LoveshipThere are few moments installed in here so perfectly that it becomes almost impossible to not be moved by it. Addition to that, the chemistry among the characters is what withholds the audience to it as it controls the energy of the cinema. The adapted screenplay by Mike Poirier is the real culprit in here as it is loosely placed in different interval or period of time that the audience sweats through the whole process on adjusting the timeline or tone of it. The script is gripping but not as smart as the writer thinks and neither is edited accordingly; it lacks better supervision. Liza Johnson; the director, is the key that unlocks this mystery with her brilliant execution skills that is not only supported but celebrated by an amazing cinematography; it is visually rich. Kirsten Wiig is a revelation in here as she pours out emotions like a rain on screen and is soothing and impactful throughout the course of it where she is supported decently by Guy Pearce and Jennifer Jason Leigh who although doesn't get that much screen time. Hateship Loveship is a relationship confused to the core whose structure is so eerie and convoluted that the audience fails to accept or adjust with it.

I almost didn't watch this movie; what a shame that would've been. Kristen is nothing less than magnificent! I loved her on SNL and worried about her when she left. She's so much more than her characters there... and they were excellent. This movie was like a good book you can't put down. Real people, dealing with real challenges, but willing to step out and take a chance on the possibility of something better. (Similar to what Kristen did by leaving SNL). And the actors are convincing - especially Kristen. This is one of the best movies I've seen in a very long time. Thank you Kristen for leaving SNL. I'll be watching a lot more of you. :)

This too, for me, was initially so dreadful (and I thought... potentially depressing) a story (initially) that I stopped watching it after about 20 minutes...BUT!!! A couple months later, I watched Kristen Wigg in "Bridesmaids" (a second time, this time to observe Ms. Wigg)... and realized (in addition to her talents shown in "Welcome to Me") that Kristen was actually a POWERFUL actress, with a BROAD range of talent and acting ability...SO... I gave it another chance, last night, realizing that this NON-major NON-Hollywood production was a personal acting choice for Kristen, for the real CHALLENGE it presented...!!! and I'm SO very glad I did.I started over, watching it from the beginning, with a new understanding of the role.Her line "I have what I want." was such a moving moment (and resonated as a point of strength and stability that I happen to really need (a nightmare boss) to realize in MY life) that it became something of a mantra, to put my mind to rest, last night.Now, having watched Kristen Wigg perform in "Girl Most Likely" and "The Skeleton Twins", I'm simply filled with admiration for what I consider her phenomenal talent, as a versatile actress.I want to add that I thought Guy Pierce was FLAWLESS, and (little downer here) Nick Nolte's facial features... were (how to put this...) disturbing and distracting.Otherwise... a TERRIFIC Film!!!
