A recently divorced guy meets the woman of his dreams. Then he meets her son.
I was so ticked when I watched this movie because I was expecting to get 2 hours of Miley Cyrus and instead got 2 hours of John C. Reilly. Just kidding. This was a satisfyingly delightful movie about a man (John C. Reilly) and a woman (Marisa Tomei)…and the person that comes between them (Jonah Hill).
It’s almost shot like a documentary with choppy screen shots and frequent panning, but it’s very well done. Reilly, Hill, & Tomei are an excellent trio who tackle an emotional situation with a lot of humor. The hatred between the level-headed John (Reilly) and semi-psychotic Cyrus is palpably hilarious, but the level-headed John wins out in the end.
The soundtrack includes a couple really good tracks, especially “I Buried a Bone” from Blind Pilot.
