Memorable, crazy movie

Lack of good storyline.
Aubrey Hackett
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Brennan Camacho
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Lindsay (the beautiful Estella Warren) is having dinner with her beau at a posh Manhattan restaurant. Sensing that he is about to propose, the gorgeous professional bolts for the bathroom, where she tries to give herself a peptalk. This is because she has "commitment" issues, causing butterflies in her stomach. Unfortunately, Lindsay has mistakenly entered the Men's Room, where A.J. (Justin Kirk) hears all. A cynic, he gives her some curt opinions and leaves. Back at the table, Stephen does produce a big, dazzling rock but Lindz breaks up with him. Rushing to her therapist (Whoopi Goldberg), she longs for several sessions. But, its August and her shrink is leaving town for a month. So are ALL of the psychologists in NYC! Thrown for a loop, Lindsay decides to start a therapy group for the lost souls like her. Advertising on Craigslist, the folks are soon having their first meeting. What a surprise when A.J. attends, too, for, as he tells Lindsay, he has issues with his adoption long ago. Also arriving is a lady with a wandering boyfriend, a gentleman who is still suffering from the end of his marriage and a host of others. Guess who else shows up? A couple of thieves, that's who, who found the group online and decided to score some easy watches and cash. Undaunted, the group continues. Will these men and women truly help each other through their problems? Will any romances hatch? This is just a delightful discovery of a romcom. It has some serious moments but also boasts a nice originality that is vastly appreciated. Warren is one beautiful star and Kirk compliments her nicely. The supporting cast, too, which includes old pros Michael Rispoli and Sandra Bernhard, is very fine. Viewers will likewise welcome the Manhattan setting, costumes, script and lively direction. The film is also worthy of more than just the romcom crowd, although this latter group will love it. Therefore, be it September, January or July, go start the car's motor and drive to the nearest outlet or put in on your Netflix list pronto.

Sometimes I don't get why some people are so harsh on some movies... OK, "See you in September" is not a masterpiece, and it would never run for the Academy Awards...but, if some people forget about all the technicalities of movie-making, about flawless plots, and all that, they'd find much more positive aspects in movies like this one!See You In September does have a few plot holes, and it does not have amazing cast performances...though the plot and actors do work well enough to bring the audience a pleasant experience.Talking about myself, when I watch a movie, most of the time I try to look beyond the movie itself. Some movies are just so bad, that there's nothing to look for. But, See You in September's got it.It's not a story with a deep drama sub-plot, it's not trying to teach us any supreme lessons, not show us any truths about the human condition. It's simply a comedy that gives us a bit of what it is like to be a person...that some of us have problems, and that helping one another can be quite effective. It shows us friendship, it shows us the hard times we sometimes have, and it shows us a bit of how simple the solution to our problems can be, here and then.I loved this movie. Had quite a pleasing experience in watching it. It's a descent comedy, a nice way to spend an hour and some more minutes, it can be called a feel-good movie that really makes us feel good, etc.All you need to do is watch it without high expectations...just enjoy it, think beyond the story being shown...try to relates the situations displayed (problems some of the characters were facing, the formation of otherwise improbable friendships, and all that), and you'll see that this movie is one that can make you think, feel, and have some fun in the process...

Thanks for this comedy, I haven't laugh like this in a while watching a movie. This movie is "vaudevilesque"! Funny, crazy, amazing!!!! Well of course you might not take it well if you're going through therapy, but from the outside it's just great! Just stop taking everything seriously and you'll really enjoy the craziness of the movie. So like I said th movie is about a woman going through therapy, vacations arrive, and there the drama begins "what am i going to do without my shrink until September???", anxiety rises and the movie begins...Unlike other movie taking the subject so seriously, for once it gives us the possibility to laugh about human condition, in a time where everything is so politically correct! Just let loose!!! Hope you don't miss another good movie because of the critics... So take a journey through love, humans, intelligence, craziness and just enjoy the ride! It's a way of dedramatizing psychology and telling people we all are out of minds sometimes, look if we stop running and being so self centered, living life at light speed, going home to empty homes after days of work, we can get back with human beings around us and just being together heels us...

It is uncommon that the viewing of a film urges me to write about its merit, but in this circumstance I had to. This movie is a complete waste of time. It is completely predictable and there is NO chemistry between any of the cast. The idea might have been good had the script, casting and comedic timing been handled better, but don't waste your money, time or download limit. If you have to watch it, wait until it comes on free to air TV. I was groaning throughout about how horrible it was and yet I stayed until on until the end. I felt similarly about the movie "Twilight", not that this movie has anything in common with "Twilight", other than bad acting and a predictable plot. Don't bother with either of them!!
