Has anyone else seen this movie? I watched it a few days ago and really liked it. I can see why the dialog might bother some people, but I thought it made the characters seem more real (the dialog sounds like it was mostly ad-libbed, with an emphasis on the way a lot of twenty-somethings and young people speak in real life- heavy use of "dude" by the male lead, for example). It almost feels like you're watching reality TV, but less trashy. Anyway, highly recommended if you haven't seen it.

I found it to be self-indulgent and pretentious. I also didn't care much for the plot.

Hehe...actually, I'm in a good mood. I just didn't like the movie.

This is exactly what I look for in movies. Every day life, too.

It was nowhere near as good as "The Puffy Shirt."

It was pretty good. Not necessarily as funny as the premise would lead you to believe. Pretty standard indie relationship movie.

The wife and I were kinda going through a rough patch, and I picked this up as a comedy to lighten up the mood in the house. Wrong fucking move. Not a relationship-affirming movie.
