This is How Movies Should Be Made

Perfectly adorable

Beautiful, moving film.

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

Okay, if you want a dark, edgy movie or something with really deep messages, this film isn't for you. But if you're looking for light entertainment like "Love Actually" or "Four Weddings And A Funeral" then it might be up your alley.Yes, it's light and frothy, but clearly by design, and that's why I liked it, especially with all the depressing news out there lately. I'm sure there will be artsy film snobs who pooh-pooh it for catering to us commoners. But as a typical movie goer, I found this funny, surprising and a welcome escape from the real world. For a low budget movie it looked great, and by the end, I actually found myself reflecting on my own personal life.

I saw this movie at a screening on campus at Columbia. It's a fun, wacky movie with some sweet endearing moments. My friends and I liked it a lot, especially the last 2 stories. Considering how low the budget is, I thought they did a good job. If you like light-hearted relationship movies you'll enjoy it, and if you don't, then you won't. Probably falls into the chick-flick category but there's some stuff that the guys in our group found funny too.If you check your cynicism at the door, it makes some interesting points about love.

I saw this movie at the Quad over the weekend and really enjoyed it. It's a cute little movie that mixes laughs with some genuine heart and insight about relationships. Jaded cynics will probably bag on it for being too commercial, but if you don't take yourself too seriously, it's a fun way to pass the time. The cast was great and gave strong performances, especially the call girl in the last story who is so cool and smoking hot. There's also a crapping scene in the movie that a lot of folks were talking about. I read that the filmmakers took a lot of heat for this scene but it was flat-out hilarious and the audience in the theater was busting out laughing. I'm glad the director had the balls to really go for it. Folks who don't like that scene either have no sense of humor or they've never seen a Farrelly Brothers movie before. If you like romantic comedies that aren't afraid to go there, check it out.

Just saw this movie at the Directors Guild of America and absolutely loved it. Theater was huge and was completely sold out. Basically, it's four stories about relationships connected together. Each story looks at issues men and women deal with but from totally different points of view. Some of the stories are serious and some are very funny. My personal favorites were the 2nd story about a married couple trying to spruce up their sex life, and the 4th story about a prostitute. A lot of the men seemed to like the third story but it was a little gross for my taste. The filmmakers spoke after the screening, and though they say it was made for a low budget, it didn't look it at all. It looked as professional as any studio movie to me. The director's visual choices were very stylized, and I like how he changed it for each story. Based on the great performances, he definitely seems like an actor's director.
