M R @RT95901422 Sep 13, 2024 It ain't all bad but it drags. The main characters are sympathetic which is what makes you not tune out but the storytelling is slow and mostly uneventful. The premise had great potential but it just wasn't funny enough. This movie had to be more comical to work and I doubt it will ever become a cult classic. Only someone who has been in nearly identical situations like the ones in this film or those who worked on it would enjoy it I feel. Rating: 5/10.

See more May 15, 2022 A beautiful sensitive performance by both Ed Helms and Amanda Bynes. Both deliver a more understated performance than usual, the film is slightly let down by the supporting cast and a rushed ending and could have done with exploring more of Eddie and Judy relationship to understand why he is so desperate to find her again however this is a sweet story with a good heart that deserved more praise than it got. See more Apr 18, 2022 This was so bad. Not compelling or satirical as it suggests itself to be. The chemistry between Helms and Seyfried is nonexistent, cringy and not believable at all. Avoid this one at all costs. See more May 30, 2021 I, like many others, don't get the criticism. It's like viewers today expect everything to be big and flashy and over dramatic or over the top ridiculous. This movie is none of that. It's a smaller story. I found the storyline interesting and the acting to be great. The satire of that late night style of humor that Letterman popularized is pretty straightforward. Overall, this was compelling and deserves a lot of praise. See more Jan 28, 2021 A generous half a star for a movie that was dull to watch and had absolutely no character. The plot itself is incoherent and illogical, the characters are all eminently unlikeable (with the single exception of Seyfried's who at least seemed innocent, if uninteresting) and the script demonstrates little more than the ability to write sentences on a piece of paper. It feels like it has aspirations of The Truman Show but falls about a hundred miles short. Save yourself 90 minutes. See more Read all reviews
