The Age of Commercialism

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The acting in this movie is really good.

Yeah, im a few years late but i finally watched. Odd part about it, Mr. Chris was my favorite character. i decided to look him up and i guess hes doing more stuff? Three Stooges Sequal?! nice. i watched the first one and liked that alot!

I saw this and immediately thought it would be an insufferable rehashing of the movie. It's not. It's better. The timing is good, the casting is excellent and it's truly funny. Having said that women don't come off very well in this show. They're either stupid like all of Will's dates, angry harpies like his best friend's wife, or Fiona. And Fiona's character is a terrible human being and will likely be murdered in her sleep by Marcus someday. Anyway, it's a good show and the fact that it got canceled is probably a good thing because it would have been terrible in a 3rd season like every other show in the history of sitcoms

Thanks NBC for ruining what could've been a great show for families. Less viewers I guess for you. Networks still haven't figured out that a lot parents don't let network executives rear their kids, or pump them with dumb ideas about sex that will con them out of their livelihood and health, or manufacture "social norms" that teach men to take advantage of women as sexual conquests with no responsibility. Or, maybe they have and they just don't care about the kind of aftermath they create, as long as condom and drug companies can keep making their money off it, and Planned Parenthood has future abortion babies to murder and sell.

The excellent script and acting make this new show a highlight of the week. Our family - two sons ages 14, 11, mom and dad, love to watch it together as it has something for everyone. The relationships that develops between superficial, sworn bachelor Will (David Walton) and his new neighbors - wise, precocious 11 year old Marcus (Benjamin Stockham) and his single, intense, vegan, mother Fiona (Minnie Driver), is funny, filled with life lessons (value of love and friendship) as the three become closer and begin to learn from one another. Secondary characters like Will's friend Andy (Al Madrigal) are also excellent and well cast. Wonderful chemistry and dynamics between the lead characters! Great script!
