Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

This movie to me was a little offbeat. It wasn't what a normal person would write down as a comedy. The story wasn't original at all, leaving you at the video store for a long time deciding whether to bother with this one. The only hilarious character of the film is Jon Heder. For once he doesn't play a nerd like in Napoleon Dynamite or The Benchwarmers. Heder strikes in this one with the same strange persona, but he leads into a less nerdy character. Ben Gourley just plays the regular nerdy main star that turns out to be a huge deal in the end. Mila Kunis also stars as the niece of Gourley's boss. The whole thing is relatively strange and disgusting with the back pimple thing, but it has some slight humor to it. Check it out or don't check it out, either way it doesn't matter.5/10

I found it refreshing to watch a new take on romantic comedy. It was the most realistic and believable love story full of characters that are so well played that you get to know everybody by the end. It definitely made me rethink the whole superman clark kent stigma. I say watch it! Especially if you are looking for something for to enjoy with friends, family, or even with your boyfriend/to be. Be prepared to laugh, cry and ask yourself WHAT? I loved all of the characters and this is the first movie that I have seen John Heder in, that I didn't constantly remember napoleon dynamite as him. Great job guys! Hope to see more movies like this soon

Rutger Hauer helps along a film that basically can be summed up in the young person finding themselves category, and rather obviously so, so it needs a lot of help.The beginning holds a lot more promise, of a film that could turn into Michael Clayton or Stranger Than Fiction. It's too bad because I really got hooked into the beginning. Then, like the opening soundtrack, it went from great and intriguing to basically nowhere.It's fun enough with plenty of curiosities and interesting characters acted well. I'm sure that will be enough for many people. The problem is it all feels contrived and empty which, ironically, is supposed to be the main discovery for the character's self realization. Not the film itself (it's not a self aware film), but that the character is supposed to recognize his own life is contrived and empty.

Romantic comedy movies are definitely the most fertile genre for "bellow from average" movies and source of frustration for viewers. This one is a perfect example of this and got a place in my "top ten worst movies".History is far from creative and jokes are weak. I found no reason for a single laugh during all the movie! Characters are plain and the performance of the actors and just good. History develops slowly, it's tedious and foreseeable. Ending is also foreseeable and sugar-coated.This is one that movies you watch in a rainy Saturday afternoon when you have nothing better to watch in my humble opinion.
