Reviews
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
bettycjung 3/16/17. I wanted to watch this because I like Anton Yelchin. The fact he died so young from a tragic accident made me want to catch everything he did. Sadly, Yelchin came off as being somewhat awkward in this somewhat implausible romance. Perhaps people living in such circles act this way, but just seemed a bit unrealistic.
brh418 An unconventional take on a conventional theme. I enjoyed the French and the intriguing characters, but I found the many final, but not quite final ending-lines tiresome and thought they weakened an otherwise good film. NB: this movie is in English (well, 99% of the time)
lu9603 This is overall a pleasant, and well-made film.Yet some of the changes in the character Brian are a bit sudden and dramatic, especially in his "conservative" attitudes and "ethics".It took Brian three weeks to overcome his "ethics" dilemma and start an affair with Arielle. Later, $6,000 gave him the "courage" to make a decision that would end Arielle's marriage, and destroy the home of her two kids. I assume that, by then, "ethics" is somehow, miraculously not an issue any more?! I wonder which was actually the "solution" to the "ethics issue", love or lust?Other than this small debacle though, Brian has the good fortune of living among decent people (I mean, all of them), even though some are mildly annoying (e.g., his parents). In real-life though, when finding out the son's girlfriend is a married French woman with two kids, some parents may start yelling, or at least stand up and leave. Admittedly, the noticeable absence of jerks does make this movie a more pleasant experience, but it is also a reminder of how different the real world is.
eco_go5 Apparently, a movie, even without being non-fiction, it can make the life of the protagonist perfect in all sense. Anton Yelchin, who was amazing in Alpha Dog, now seems to not have a clue about acting. He overreacts in all corners, and unfortunately, for me, it stressed me the hell out. I would love to meet someday, a group of people, so balanced, ego-free, and totally sane, that they can have a complete and fulfilling life, even when they know they both have a side partner. I always try to identify the good aspects of the movie, the bright side if you will. I totally couldn't with this one. A paper thin plot, a pseudo smart narrative, and perfect nonsense circumstances for the main character. The only thing I learned about this movie is to make better choices when I get to go to the theater.
