Review of Sundays at Tiffany's (2010) by Jiana W — 25 Mar 2013

I get a strong TV-movie vibe from this. That's not a good thing. But anyway, the first thought that popped into my head when I read the back of this was "Drop Dead Fred", a ridiculously goofy movie about a serious young woman whose mischievous imaginary friend from childhood suddenly returns and begins to seriously muff up her mind and life. But "Sundays At Tiffany's" is nothing like its predecessor in its execution. It's noticeably sophisticated, filled with definite eye candy, and less laughs. Michael is a fun imaginary friend and a definite transition from the stiff life Jane is used to, but he isn't childish. There's less laughs in here than one would have expected given its premise.

There is a brief gag where Michael tries some marshmallow-looking things after leaving a swanky restaurant. A pleased, devilish look crosses his face and he backs up to take an entire handful of the treat before leaving. The disgusted desk attendant takes the bowl and dumps it. This is funny, and I really wished the movie was filled with more moments like this. Sadly it isn't. This is the only big laugh you'll get. Everything else feels surprisingly serious and stiff as the life Jane is beginning to come out of.
