Review of Crazy, Stupid, Love. (2011) by Brett H — 21 Jul 2015

Crazy, Stupid, Love is a perfectly paced and balanced romantic comedy that is supremely elevated by its stellar cast and hilarious script! Right from the start we're thrown into the trials and tribulations of people in their relationships and it's awkwardly relatable but you feel relieved that you're only a fly on the wall in this situation.

The cast is first-rate and their effortless chemistry with one another is so charming and witty you can't stop smiling watching them interact. The story is a plethora of coincidences, chance encounters, and very funny/awkward situations, but unlike "Serendipity" which is only believable if magic exists, this one grounds its absurdities flawlessly, culminating in one of the funniest family get-together scenes I've ever seen! It's a feel-good romantic comedy that has a little something for everyone and the cast of amazing actors help it stand out from the crowded genre.
