A very interesting movie that shows the behaviors of an unstable and emotionally unavailable guy. Deeply grateful with the author for not making a fairytale ending out of the mess he made. An honest, realistic and a must see if you need to put your feet on the ground again. Ricci’s acting was absolutely perfect.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Spoilers, ish. This certainly isn't your traditional love story. I wanted to love it. I really did. So, going into this movie with an open mind was key. They did all the cute, quirky, romance building ish at the jump and got my hopes up for a happy ending. Not everything happens the way we want, and certainly end how we'd expect a story like this is to end in *real life.* It was a tad disheartening to see the guy turning out to be exactly how he said he was going to be at the beginning. I guess not everyone changes for the right reasons.

This was very difficult to watch. It was that BEN character - SO cringe! I couldn't shake the SERIAL KILLER vibes I was getting from him. Every scene he's just walkin' around like a zombie, looking like he saw a ghost, no facial expressions, and dead behind the eyes…then when he opened up the door with the credit card?? I thought for sure he was going to come unhinged and have a total meltdown and murder the whole family at the end of the film!

Christina Ricci was both amazing and embarrassing in that movie.

Unlike the ratings here, I actually thought it was a pretty good movie. It got to the essence of the 'eternal' batchelor and didn't end with a 'kitch'. I liked it
