POSITIVES…
The opening interview scene is a great way to kick off this interesting premise of a movie.
Ed Helms is great in this as Matt, showcasing his skills of being awkward and vulnerable.
Patti Harrison as Anna is also great here, and is fantastic at her deadpan comedy.
A lot of this movie is about the chemistry and the conversations Matt and Anna have, and they easily kept me engaged.
There is quirky, awesome, and clever dialogue in this that covers fantastic topics from fascinating factoids, social-philosophical thoughts, and pop culture references.
Along with the conversations, are the excellent scenes that feature them. This movie is filled with fun quirky and humorous scenes.
“Opening the shade: The deeper meaning behind color…”
“Lamp.”
“I can’t tell if she’s really rude or amazing.”
There are lots of excellent supporting casts here, but I gotta give it to Sufe Bradshaw for stealing every scene she’s in.
Three story arcs. Three trimesters. Cute.
Sweet. Touching. Thought provoking. Good stuff!
NEGATIVES…
It’s not exactly the most exciting movie in the typical sense.
Some might think Patti Harrison’s dry comedic role is just much too dry.
There will be those who won’t be too happy with how the movie ends.
