Rewarding
Finally a rom-com for everyone. Additionally, midsummer comedy Crazy,Stupid Love is at times as much a drama as it is laugh generating. Infact, is as serious a deconstruction of modern love as it is a humorousexposition of how stupid and crazy it can be for teens through adults.And rewarding and mystifying and . . . Well, you get the idea: thisfilm sweetly shows the fortitude needed to play the game, right to theend.Cal (Steve Carell) is being divorced by Emily (Julianne Moore) after 25years of soul mating. Jacob (Ryan Gosling) helps him get over hisdespair by teaching him to be cool with women. But Cal's heart belongsto Emily to the end. That part of the action is easy to predict; it'sthe other characters that lend color and unity to the pursuit of loveby every healthy girl and boy, man and women.Son Robbie (Jonah Bobo) loves babysitter Jessica (Analeigh Tipton), wholoves Cal, whose wife has had an affair with David (Kevin Bacon), wholoves Emily. Throw in a horny teacher Kate (Marisa Tomei), whom Calloves ever so briefly, and you have a zoo of unfulfilled love that onlyan American farce can untangle at only the right time. And it does,with a light heart that teaches the virtue of pursuing your loverelentlessly.Crazy, Stupid Love does better in the earlier parts of the film as Caltries out his new clothes and line; in the latter part it becomesserious about it homiletic goal.

Checkov DID Write Comedies After All
Anton Checkov was wont to describe his great plays - Uncle Vanya, ThreeSisters, The Seagull, The Cherry Orchard, as comedies but in Englanddirectors tend to stress the melancholy and there's a nice link hereinasmuch as Julianne Moore appeared in arguably the best film adaptionof Checkov that has so far appeared, Vanya on 42nd Street, a play inwhich, not unlike Crazy, Stupid, Love, characters are apt to fall inlove with love objects who are themselves equally unrequitedly in lovewith someone else. It's further referential in the sequence whereGosling takes Carell's wardrobe in hand which echoes a similar sequencein Come Blow Your Horn where Sinatra, a swinger-about-town, takesstrait-laced kid brother, Tony Bill, on a similar shopping and groomingexpedition. Referential or not this is still an exceptional feel-goodfilm albeit one with more of a spine than others of the ilk. The actingis uniformly up to snuff with Marisa Tomei making a strong bid to stealif from under the nose of Julianne Moore. Aimed at the Multiplex crownit is close to the crossover point between Multiplex and Art-house andwell worth seeing.

Crazy? No. Stupid? Kind of.
The love in Crazy, Stupid, Love is not that crazy. But the movie iskinda stupid indeed. After watching the trailer, I thought I was gonnasee a romantic comedy that can actually tell me something about love.However, it didn't touch me or tell me anything at all. Especially thedirectors completely loses control of the movie when Emma Stone bringsRyan Gosling to parents. I'm giving 4 points. For the first one, it'sthe minimum for a movie. The second one for the director telling astory. Nowadays a lot of filmmakers even fail at this part. The thirdpoint goes to Steve Carell and Julianne Moore for their chemistry whilethey totally don't look like a couple in person. The last one is givento Ryan Gosling for being so hot. As for Emma Stone, I had a lot ofexpectations for her. But she still looks like the high school girlfrom Easy A and not attractive at all. Ryan is just too sexy for her.Anyway, it's still a good movie to kill time.

Crazy, Stupid and thats it!
I really regret wasting 118 min on this movie! In general, the storyline is very common and even in that it's not rich at all. Yet, it'snot even flowing in a realistic believable way. It might be a weak tryto critic the 'sex free' social life in a not very funny sarcastic way.Yet it does not represent that message in a good way. Not a funny sceneor a quote would last in my mind from this movie. However there was oneline that really stuck in my mind as it did not fit in the theme andthere is not even a weak explanation on what it meant in the script; Itwas when Cal Weaver told Emily Weaver "Am glad we switched babies atthe hospital". A line that did not mean any thing related to the story.It could be 2011 best 'off topic' movie line!

real potential down the drain
I went to see this movie only because Steve Carell was in this and heis always good, given the right material. Given that this is a romanticcomedy, I wasn't expecting anything new considering it's the same storyover and over again. The movie had a good story and the first half wasfun and entertaining, but into the second hour, the movie lost mebecause like all comedies, eventually the fun draws to a close and itjust becomes ridiculous. A lot of this movie is implausible and wouldnever happen in real life and there are way to many stories going onwhich makes the script more convoluted than it needs to be. JulianneMoore and Kevin Bacon are bored as heck on screen with barely anythingto do except to spike the movie's budget up for a few known faces inthe industry. This movie also has way too many twists ad turns to knockyou on your ass and bewilder you. With a cast as stellar as this andtwo directors, you would think it would be more unique and to thepoint, but this becomes a mess and fast. I was really looking forwardto this and wanted like it, but as a whole package, it just gets soggyafter a while. This is a rental at best and to avoid all the hornyteens looking to see Gosling shirtless and Emma Stone in bed just avoidthe theatre.

Poem about love
The other like part of yourself. Shadows of past and a fragile present.Fear, emotions and long expectation. And the pain like moral mirror.A meditation-film. Blood-sick and an ambiguous form of love. Questions,illusions, slices of hate and way of survive. A strange passing andsubtle exploration of relation between brothers.Depressing images and circles of freedom. Nooks of gestures and aspectsof reality like symbols of fiction. Compasion like only instrument todefine the rules of strange and cold universes. And colors ofsentiments essence.The end of film marks the last words of a subtle poem. The shadow ofataraxia after a long trip, taste of peace after a terrible fight,touch of new images and possibilities after a powerful interiortempest.

Raises good questions about infidelity and blame
Some comments on movie websites quote Jacob's lines and complain ofsexism. I'd say there's a big difference between portraying somethingand being something, but the message boards are missing a moreinteresting point.Here, let's imagine the genders of Crazy, Stupid, Love reversed:CALLIE: My husband just left me, and he slept with some woman at theoffice! JACKIE: Well, it's no wonder: you've certainly let yourself go.I'm going to make you over and teach you how to get into a man's pantsmore effectively. You know, rediscover your femininity.It's unfair, though, to attack a screenplay for making nonjudgmentalobservations about human nature. Better to first address the accuracyof each problematic point, in case it isn't the words themselves thatoffend you, but the truth of them.Is it true, then, that we're obligated to court our spouses tirelessly,for the rest of our lives, because they're "only human" and may"stray?" Is counting on them to remain faithful on your bad hair daysthe same as taking them for granted? If "working late" comes to mean"exchanging bodily fluids with Jamie from accounting," is it thecheater's fault for cheating? Is it your fault for working too manySaturdays, getting flabby from lack of exercise, wearing the wrongshoes and forgetting to compliment your spouse on wearing the rightshoes? Is your spouse at fault for failing to love and cherish you nomatter how rotten your teeth have become and how bad you smell? Do youshare the blame equally? Or is "fault" a useless concept in astruggling marriage in which you're both flawed, make mistakes andblah, blah, blah? --from my review at www.1man365movies.com

Chix Chat on Film review A man attempts to reconcile his life after his wife asks for a divorce.
I am always in favor of a good comedic family drama and thought thatthis one looked as good as any. I was also interested in this storybecause it struck an accord with someone such as I, who has beenmarried for more than two decades, and begs the question where can itgo wrong? Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) has reached a comfortablecomplacent point in his life when he is then blindsided by his wifeEmily (Julianne Moore), as seen in the trailer, with her declaration ofwanting a divorce and her confession of a transgression. I have seenDespicable Me so many times now with my grandson Three, that when I seeSteve Carell all I can think about is Gru, yes sad but true. I digress.The situation with Cal and Emily leads to Cal spending a lot of time ina bar where he then meets Jacob Palmer (Ryan Gossling) a slickwomanizing pretty boy. I was not convinced by the whole premise thatled to Jacob and Cal bonding, but decided not to give it too muchthought. But the fact of the matter is that if Jacob were as selfabsorbed as he was shown to be he would not have given Cal two minutesof thought, let alone try to help him deal with his circumstances. Themost endearing character throughout this whole movie was Robbie (JonahBobo). I loved his determination and his honesty regarding how he feltabout Jessica (Analeigh Tipton), it was so adorable. And he was rightabout the four year age difference in a few years it would make nodifference at all. I found myself after sitting through approximatelyforty minutes of this film, slumped down in my seat, yawning while Iwondered where it was headed and then started to think about theWhodini song, When We Gonna Get To The Good Part, Get Down To The GoodPart. And finally we did get to the good part, when all theoutlandishness and asinine behavior brought everything together. And tobe perfectly honest I did not see it coming. I sat up took interestonce more and thought that the film had taken a very clever turn. Iliked the bottom half of the film, but I felt as if the top half wasoverindulged. I give this film an amber light for taking so long to getto the good part.

I loved it ... but the wife hated it.
I rented this movie thinking I would score big points in selecting afunny, romantic movie on the night of my wife's 43rd birthday.She ended up not liking it, but I, on the other hand, thought it was ahoot. So, guys, don't be surprised if you end of sleeping on the couchafter renting this one for your date or significant other.This film represents the romantic changes and challenges we face as wemature.Seen from all perspectives (15-year old boy, 18 year old girl,20-something bachelor, 40-something parents), you come away bewilderedat the complexities of love, marriage and relationships in general.How do we marry and keep it fresh after so many years? How does acareer bachelor finally find true love? How does a boy express feelingsabout his babysitter? How do we know we are with the right companion? Iliked this film because it touched a nerve with me, and spoke certaintruths that I hadn't considered before.My wife, on the other hand, couldn't get past the multiple triangles ofrelationship building (especially amongst the younger characters), andI think checked out mentally before she should have.This is a quality piece of work with some solid acting, characterdevelopment and a few surprises at the end. Oh yeah, it's pretty darnfunny too.

What movie were you watching?
I saw a movie that was completely unbelievable. And the unbelievabilitynot only kept me from caring about all these characters, but I found Istarted to really dislike them.This is a movie about love. 95% of the movie doesn't show us why thesecharacters fall in love--the one exception is the two minutes when ryangosling and emma stone's characters finally socialize. Otherwise, for amovie that revolves around how we love others, we are never shown why.At least tell us why, which would be bad filmmaking, but at least it'ssomething. But from the onset of the movie we know certain characterslove other certain characters, only because they tell us that they do.Never do we know why. There's no meat added to the bones. In the movie,love is a defined thing. Not as ambiguous as it is in real life. Butalthough it's a singular defined thing, they never define it! Secondly,these characters have no motivation to do any of the things they do. Orlet me rephrase: the motivation that's offered is shotty, unbelievable.Why is ryan gosling helping steve carrell? I don't get it. Why doesSteve carrell change the person that he's been for 40+ years? I don'tbuy it. Why does Marissa Tomei become attracted to Steve Carell,because the plot needs her to. Why does Emma Stone walk into a bar andkiss a guy who just happens to be there after a 3 minute conversationshe had with him over 1 week ago? And why does she grow to hate herboyfriend? Why does the son build this huge thing, somehow lug it to ahigh school, cut school himself, and stand up in front of kids mucholder than him to profess his love? Why does the seventeen year oldlove an older man? To be clear, motivation is offered for most of thesescenarios, but it's unbelievable. And in some cases no motivation isoffered. That's bad writing. Not even in a "it's so bad it's fun" kindaway. It's just bad. And it makes the movie totally uninteresting.Steve Carrell attempts to save this mess with a few punchlines that dopush out a chuckle and there's a funny little farce at the end of themovie (also with half-assed motivation, but you'll give it a pass). Butin the hands of creatives with something interesting to say and whodon't have the pressure of a major Hollywood studio backing the film,this movie could have been very good.

Not as Funny as it Should Have Been
Steve Carell is Cal Weaver, a 40 something dad who has embraced middleage mediocrity. He goes out to dinner with his baggy chinos, and NewBalance sneakers on. He takes his relationships with his children andhis wife for granted and is basically living with the cruise controlon. Cal's wife Emily (Julianne Moore), drops a bombshell on Cal whilethey are out at dinner and tell him that she wants a divorce and thatshe has been sleeping with someone else.Cal is devastated and is forced to re-think his life now that he has tolive alone. In order to drown his sorrows, Cal starts hanging out at alocal bar where he meets Jacob (Ryan Gosling), a womanizing playboy whoagrees to help Cal find his mojo and win back his wife. I had some highhopes for this movie. They certainly found enough stars to be in it.Does it translate into a great movie? Not really. The problem with thismovie isn't the acting it's the script. The plot is pretty ridiculousand there are unnecessary twists that just didn't need to be includedin the movie. It plays out like a bad episode of Threes Company.Although I was impressed with the acting from Jonah Bobo as Cal's son,he is also the victim of some of the most ridiculous scenes in themovie. It's too bad because he could have had one of the moreinteresting performances in the film.Julianne Moore seemed to playing the exact same character she played inThe Kids Are All Right. A 40 something mom that cheats on her spouseand is confused about what she wants from life. She was the leastimpressive of the cast for me. The rest of the cast did a good job,Ryan Gosling continues to impress. He proves that he can do comedy justas well as he does anti-hero. I am getting a little worried that we arestarting to get over saturated with him though. How about you give us alittle time to miss you? I know that I was supposed to like this one,its 78% percent fresh on RT but for me some decent acting can't make upfor a flakey unrealistic script that wants us to believe in one toomany coincidences.

Not very satisfactory despite its good intentions
After reading so many very positive reviews about Crazy, Stupid, Love,I expected it to be a challenging deconstruction of the romanticcomedy, or at least a version with enough intelligence in order to makeit a remarkable film of the genre, reaching that weird combination ofgenuinely funny comedy and sincere and credible romance. And I have tosay that Crazy, Stupid, Love certainly tried to achieve that;unfortunately, its occasional deviations from the known formula, aswell as its unexpected encroachments of the habitual clichés made itnot be very satisfactory, despite having some positive elements.The main problem from Crazy, Stupid, Love is that its screenplay feelsimbalanced, due to the fact that it pays more attention to the "main"romances while it ignores the supporting characters, which were moreinteresting in my humble opinion. And something which does not help isthat those main romances frequently loose the course and tend to repeatthemselves due to their lack of a narrative impulse. For example: Howmany times do we have to see Cal making a fool of himself in the bar?We already understood it...he is weak and shy with women; let's moveon, please. Meanwhile, even though I consider Ryan Gosling one of thebest contemporary actors, I found him antipathetic and not verycredible in this movie as the co-star. As for Julianne Moore, her hugetalent is wasted with a weakly written character.On the positive side, Steve Carell brings a solid performance, eventhough it is not very different to his previous work. In fact, hischaracter in this movie is a combination of the boring husband heinterpreted in the comedy Date Night and the depressed loser from thedrama Dan in Real Life...something which is not bad at all. That simplyreveals the fact that Carell has the necessary range to go from thecomedy to the drama with fluidity, as long as the road between bothextremes does not go very far from his "comfortable area". Emma Stonealso brings a competent work in this movie. However, my favoriteperformances from Crazy, Stupid, Love were unexpectedly the ones fromJonah Bobo and Analeigh Tipton, at the same time that their "romance"(or romance attempt) was the most honest and emotive one from the wholefilm. Unfortunately, their screen-time is reduced, but they both sharethe best scene from Crazy, Stupid, Love, which was a breath of freshair after the various missteps the screenplay had committed before it.Unfortunately, they both also share the WORST scene from the movie: aclassic "big romantic gesture" which supposedly solves it all, when infact, it made me angry for being such badly raised and executed.I was left with the impression that Crazy, Stupid, Love aspired to be ahybrid of Love Actually and American Beauty, and no wonder that itfailed to achieve that very high ambition. However, at least it triedit, and because of that and the fact that it kept me moderatelyentertained, I think it deserves a slight recommendation. Nevertheless,I would have mainly preferred a better balanced and more crediblescreenplay, which did not fall into the clichés it tried to laugh at.

Crazy, Stupid...like a fox
Easy to look at. Everyone in this movie is good looking and easy towatch from the main characters to the extras in the bar. Excellentperformances all around. Hard to see her character and forget you arelooking at Julianne Moore. Marisa Tomei is great,"Cute and sexy".Like mic shots, when the sound boom shows, this movie had obviouswriter shots. Why did she want a divorce? The only reason she wasdriving the car was so Steve Carell could jump out. One couple photo inthe house to break, no family photos to spill the beans?Why the boring too long talk scene in the school hallway except to setup the Marisa Tomei twist. How about have another couple walk out ofthe class to give the hallway wait credibility. The order of things atthe graduation ceremony was convenient. The nude photos, in this dayand age, would have been sex text and not printed as needed. Of coursethe parents didn't tear them up as they were used again late in themovie.Don't sweat the details. There are plenty of chuckles and onehysterical scene that ties everything together. At nearly two hours,it's a tad long for a romantic comedy and you'll guess the resolutionin the first five minutes. Don't think too much. Go with it and enjoy.

7.6??? Give me a break! This movie is blatant ripoff of several films! Dont even get me started on the ridiculous plot -)
Great cast, but so many things borrowed from other films. Steve Carrellmight as well be the 40-year old Virgin again, because he's pretty muchjust reprised his old role, only instead of having 2 friends tutoringhim about how to pick up women - he has Ryan Gosling. Speaking of whom,either he is wasted on his role here, or the other way round. Eitherway it doesn't work. Good looking guy, but about as funny as a wall. Another borrowed item from the past - the Dirty Dancing lift-the-girl-into-the-air dance scene. The fact that it's blatantly obvious thatthis scene was completely unnecessary for the movie, it becomes evenmore obvious that it was only stuck in to hopefully get some of themagic from that iconic scene to somehow rub off into this movie.Desperate attempt, and very unoriginal.The scene where Ryan Gosling is standing naked in front of SteveCarrell in the gym. I urge you to watch Simon Pegg's "Run Fat BoyRun"from a few years ago. In it you will see the IDENTICAL scenebetween Simon Pegg and Hank Azaria. Daylight robbery, once again.The plot itself is preposterous. Everything from how they built up RyanGosling to be this single, lothario, pick-up artist who somehow makesSteve Carrell his best friend - just because he saw him a few nights ina bar whinging about his cheating wife. And the climax where they allrealise what's actually going on, is actually the most ridiculous sceneof all. It's almost as if the writer and director thought of that scenefirst, and then thought "Okay, now let's go backwards and write a storyfrom that ". It's the equivalent of someone thinking of the punchlinefirst, and then coming up with the joke. Never works.2 hrs of my life wasted. Well, 1 hr and 40 mins anyway. I read the newsfor the last 20 mins and kept the film running as background noise. 2stars because it did have the rare funny moment.p.s. Did I mention that Marisa Tomei is wasted in this movie?

This one is really all over the place
Crazy, Stupid, Love has many good qualities to it, but is also reallyall over the place. Steve Carell stars in this comedy-drama as Cal, whohas been married since he was 17. Julianne Moore plays his wife Emily.One night while Cal and Emily are out to dinner, they talk about whatthey want. Cal says that he wants a dessert, while Emily says that shewants a divorce. On the drive home, Emily confesses that she slept withanother man. Cal becomes too heart broken to care.Meanwhile, their son Robbie admits that he is in love with hisbabysitter Jessica. However, Jessica refuses to do anything about itother than to tell Robbie to stop.While heart broken and moved away, Cal spends his nights going to a barupset talking about how his wife cheated on him. This catches theattention of Jacob, a ladies man who knows how to pick up women, playedby Ryan Gosling. Jacob takes Cal under his wing and teaches him tochange his looks and style and what to say to women in the bar.The film goes through so many crazy twists and turns that directorsGlen Ficarra and John Requa can't focus on what parts to focus on andwhat parts to leave out in the story. While a lot of the twists andturns all come together in the final act, this one felt too much allover the place and couldn't decide if this is a comedy or a drama. Theonly real flaw to me in this film is the directing job.The acting in this film is great. Steve Carell is a great leading actorand shows that he can carry a film and rocks at being the broken manwho finds his way of getting his wife back. Ryan Gosling nails the roleof the ladies man who takes the broken man how to move on, even thoughhis game has been a bit lacking. Julianne Moore is great at being thefickle wife who wants a divorce, yet can't stand the guy who she ishaving an affair with. Marisa Tomei only has a few short scenes, butshe rocks them all. Tomei's character Kate is a middle school teacherwho Cal picks up in a bar. There is a funny twist about her. KevinBacon plays David, the man who Emily had an affair with. Bacon isn'tgiven much to work with, but he does a good job. Emma Stone is alsogood as Hannah, an up and coming lawyer who Jacob finds himselfcrushing on.The film is worth watching just for the acting alone. The cast ensemblecarries the film through its flawed directing and decent screenplay.

Exciting. Funny. Sad. And this deserves an Oscar.
Not many movies every adults could enjoy like this. This like Oscar-winning "Crash" storyline, with a twist of humour in it. And when youtalk "Crash" material, it is the real thing, whether you like it ornow. The storyline is an epidemy of family relationship. The sidekick "pickup artist" although cliché but is utilised to an extreme here, makingit quite unique.The dialogue Laughter is like the opposite conundrum of tears, andPearl Harbour can make you trickle that precious drop, this movie willmake you blow your windpipe laughing.There's only one word to describe this movie: "Grandeur". Totallyhighly recommended. No R18 scenes in this movie, only nearly.P.S. And to Steve Carrell, you brought my surprise of Vietnamese to anew level (Calling Emily = Em, which is sweetheart in Vietnamese).

Not as great as everyone says but its still a notch above the usual romantic comedy.
After seeing the trailer a million times at theaters I was lookingforward to seeing Crazy Stupid Love as it has one of my favorite actorsin it, Julianne Moore. It looked to me like a smart romantic comedy foradults with a bit of an edge, which is exactly what it is, the story isfresh and appeals to a broad age range, the Steve Carrell/JulianneMoore storyline appeals to the older married demographic and the RyanGosling/ Emma Stone storyline appeals to the younger hipper generation.Steve Carrell gives a terrific performance as the poor guy whose lifejust seems to go from bad to worse, I think he will be nominated for agolden globe or something like that, he is a very funny guy to watch nomatter what role he is in, the rest of the cast is fine also, MissMoore once again proves she us an actress with a spectacular, RyanGosling and Emma Stone have excellent chemistry together which makesthem entirely believable as lovers, however one person steals the showand that is Marisa Tomei in all her nutty glory, her scenes areexceptionally funny but they are too few and far between.This movie does have it's flaws, the end twist is too far fetched andunbelievable, I think it would have been better if they gave you someclues as to how the story all comes together in the end, theGosling/Stone relationship isn't given enough time to make you reallycare, and also it's a tad too long. But other than that this is a nice,funny and overall enjoyable film to watch.

Wonderful movie
I so enjoyed this movie! The acting and writing were excellent and Iwas very moved by the end. It was so enjoyable! In particular I lovedthe long scene where Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling fell in love over thecourse of an evening. They had amazing chemistry, she is really turningout to be a terrific young actress. And he is always spot on. It waswonderful. But everything was good! Sometimes Julianne Moore isn't thatsympathetic to me but I enjoyed her here very much. The same for SteveCarrell. This was his best work since the movie with Juliette Binoche(I loved that one, too, DAN IN REAL LIFE). As opposed to some of thegross out comedies of the summer, this one really trusted theintelligence of the audience. I hope these filmmakers continue on.

It didnt work with me!!
Well, I would say we have seen the same story again n again. Only thedifference here is they have some twist in the end, which I foundtotally out of place. This movie was a total let down, and I would notrecommend anybody wasting their time. The whole execution the story isreally poor in my opinion and none of the scenes make a lastingimpression. I had expected a better movie than this and the twist inend I found as been put together forcibly just because they want sometwist to regular story. Well let me talk about performances: SteveCarell is good, gets advantage as he is producer of film. Julliane isOK..Kevin is small role(really good actor), Emma stone just lost herone fan in me. I mean seriously. Ryan is OK and gets little scope butgood as flamboyant playboy. His story is undeveloped and should havebeen better told. Steve Carell's youngest daughter is really goodactress. If you have not watched her film then you should check outRamona and Beezus. Rest of the cast is OK and did give OK performances.

There are a few ways straight off the bat that I would use to describethis film; good, funny, laid back, easy viewing and heart warming ÂIt's the kind of movie that is great for a first date and also great tosit down to watch with the family as there is something in there foreveryone- but there is one particular word that I would not use andthat is; predictable. Now I'm not saying you won't guess where the filmis heading as it pans out but there will definitely be a couple ofsurprises along the way.After finding out his wife has had an affair and wants a divorce Cal(Steve Carell) is taken under the wing of ladies man Jacob (RyanGosling) and shown the ropes of being a single guy again in the modernera.The cast is strong and everyone gives a solid performance but the keyto this movie is in the writing, rom-coms lately have been in a bit ofa slump and getting kind of boring but Crazy, Stupid, Love breaks awayfrom the norm and shows us exactly how entertaining the genre can bewhen done correctly. Whilst following the usual structure of a standardrom-com and throwing some curve-balls along the way Crazy, Stupid, Lovewill pull in plenty of genuine laughs.VerdictIf you haven't already, go see this movie.- The Late Review
