Movie Reviews
My advice? Watch it? nd don't watch the trailer, there is no need
I wasn't expecting a typical American comedy, since I usually appreciate Simon Pegg's work. But I wasn't expecting to enjoy it this much. It seemed to me like a romantic movie but realistic in many ways
Including the fact that the actors are not typically young and
gorgeous from every angle - They are beautiful yes, in their own authentic way, much like their characters I think.
And of course it's a cliché film in many ways, but still made me smile and laugh out loud many times. I will recommend to my friends who appreciate quality cinema. It's one of the good ones!
