Review of Management (2009) by Susan M — 25 Feb 2012
A lovely independent movie.
Review.
I can understand why some people didn't like this: it is unusual, not your standard Rom Com. But here is what I loved about it:
- extremely well acted: the main characters have a sweetness and muddledness that evolves during the course of the movie, and does so in a way that is both moving and convincing. And, while at the beginning it was hard to believe that the two characters could grow close, by the end (or really the middle), it was very believable. I loved both Zahn and Aniston. and the supporting actors were funny (woody herrelson) and good (everyone).
- the story is romantic but not in a usual way. it's paced more slowly, which I liked a lot once I got used to it.
- it has a sweetness that derives from the Steve character (played by steve zahn), and actually from the other characters too.
If you like independent movies, with their unusual pacing, then definitely try this one.
