Going The Distance (well almost)
This movie almost went the distance. Boy meets girl. Both agree that it is necessarily a short term thing. Boy and girl fall in love. Girl moves away, so they do the long distance thing for what is supposed to be a year. Then life happens, so what to do? It was at that maybe we should break up phase when wreeeepppp, the movie broke down. No happy ending, no tragic ending. Just no ending. A broken movie with an unresolved relationship is like life sometimes, I suppose. It just isn't very satisfying. I was given another ticket, but somehow movie interruptus is about as satisfying as...well, you know.
I liked that it was a fairly light, predictable movie with a happy feel to it. Yeah, sometimes people just want to escape to a happy place. Comedy worked most of the time. I could have skipped some of scenes; bathroom humor isn't my thing; gratuitous drug use wasn't necessary either.
