Crazy Stupid Love
To start with I wound up loving this movie! It's not really a surprise given the cast and the awesome reviews, but I was a little taken a back at home much I enjoyed. Obviously given the title it's a bit romantic, and it's quite a bit dramatic as well. But what I wasn't expecting was how funny it would be too. Honestly I feel like I laugh harder during this movie than any other one I've seen recently. After the movie ended I started looking forward to the next time I seen the movie. There is fairly big twist near the end, at least I didn't see it coming, and I'm curious to see my thought of the movie when I watch it again and know what to expect. If you haven't seen it yet, I'm definitely recommending it and think it could easily be one of my favorite movies of the summer!

  1. I've been dying to see this, I'm glad to hear you loved it! the movie reviewer for the paper I write for did mention that there was a twist... I'm glad you (and him!) didn't reveal it... now I want to see it more! but I mean, who can say no to seeing Ryan Gosling shirtless? haha. I love Emma Stone, too. actually, that whole cast is pretty amazing.

  4. I thought the trailer for this movie looked cute but I wasn't making any plans to go see it in theatres....but after your review I'm starting to rethink that decision! Sounds like I might have to go see it afterall!

  5. I enjoyed this one, too. I definitely want to watch it again to see if I pick up on anything the second time, but I'll probably wait until it is on DVD/Netflix.

    I think Emma Stone is the cutest, funniest thing ever.

    The only issue I had with the movie was I had a hard time understanding Ryan Gosling's character's motivation. It felt like a bit of a stretch that someone so self-absorbed would take on such a "project" without prompting. I thought the son was AMAZING and I can't wait to see what else he does.
