crazy, stupid, love


I don't know if you ever have those movies that make you really emotional, typically for unknown reasons, but this is one of those movies for me. It was absolutely great! Long, but great! For one reason, or another it really affected me. It had an excellent storyline, I feel the premise of the entire movie was real life. There was a huge twist that I totally didn't see coming, which is unusual for me. I feel like I have an eye for the unpredictable, but I missed this. It wasn't as funny as I expected... the previews made it seem like a comedy, but I would actually call it a dark comedy, if that's even a genre. It was awkward too, really awkward. Not unlike Dan in Real Life. Steve Carrell produced it and stars in it, so funny awkward is obviously a given... 

Overall, two thumbs up...8 out of 10 stars...I might see it again.

ps - why is Kevin Bacon always a tool? ALWAYS.
