John Krasinski (The Office) and Maya Rudolph (Saturday Night Live) star in the heartfelt film that explores the comedic twists and turns in one couple's journey across contemporary America.

Featuring a remarkable soundtrack and an incredible ensemble cast - including Jeff Daniels, Allison Janney, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Catherine O'Hara and Jim Gaffigan. It's the hilarious, witty film that critics are hailing as "absolutely extraordinary!" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone) |

Fun Little Romantic Comedy November 20, 2009
Cheryl Killian (Arlington, TX, USA)
This was a fun little movie with lots of things to think about in a couple starting out in the world together. I always love Maya Rudolph.
 I adore this movie!!! November 16, 2009
Victoria Tejada (Texas, USA)
This movie was amazing. I recommend it to anyone and everyone. It was cute and funny and quirky. And I loved watching John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph as a couple, and Katherin O'hara and Allison Janney were hysterical. And not only that, the music in the movie was beautiful, I got the soundtrack asap :)All in all, well written, great directing, terrific acting, and...just...god, awesome.
 Could have been so much better! November 14, 2009

I was prepared to love this movie, and when it was only John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph, for the most part I did. Especially his character, which was sweet, charming, warm, and loving. But when they brought in the rest of the cast, they ruined the movie for me. Why is it they cannot seem to make a movie for adults anymore without everyone spouting foul language left and right? It's not funny, it's not intelligent or witty writing, it's simply lazy. And for a female writer to descend to the same locker-room level as the "boys" is pathetic. This movie could have and should have been so much better than this! It had so many little bright spots that save it from utter disappointment. Fast forward through the scenes with Allison Janney and Maggie Gyllenhaal and you won't have missed much at all. Sorry, ladies; I like you both, but not in this movie.

"Sneaks up and floors you." November 14, 2009
D. WISELY (DaleForce One)
I ran across a review of this film that included the line that it "sneaks up and floors you." My wife and I enjoyed the movie in a light sort of way. Lots of good laughs and fun in the goofy characters. Then the last few minutes do in fact sneak up and floor you and left my wife and myself weeping during the credits. And, it's not because of a twist, or false sentimentality, or, God forbid, a "Love Story" type ending. Instead, we get a truly artful conclusion that elicits all kinds of emotions, as would a really well-crafted poem, heartfelt, but subtle and not at all manipulative. John Krasinski gives a fine performance, but the real gem here, of course, is Maya Rudolph. This is as good, wide-ranging, and skillful as any performance I've seen in a film in a few years. Probably the best film I've seen this year.
 Overrated movie. November 12, 2009
Techie Working Mother (Southlake, Texas)
Rented this flick recently. I think the critics liked it, but I just didn't get it. Bored in the first 30 minutes, never recovered. Maybe I'm just too shallow to get it. Lol.
