Crazy Stupid Love
My Review:
What an amazing cast in Crazy Stupid Love – a romantic comedy that is timely and hilarious! Steve Carrell, Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore, Emma Stone, Marisa Tomei – wow! They’re all fantastic. The writing is very clever – lots of laughs, and also some pulling of the heartstrings. Something for each of us to relate to.
Emily and Cal (Moore and Carrell) are long-time marrieds out to dinner when she springs on him that she wants a divorce. Life as they knew it changes dramatically as they each struggle to find their footing in their new situations. Cal gets some mentoring from a younger womanizer who ends up changing his life in more ways than one. A few surprise twists keeps things interesting.
Highly recommended.
Crazy, Stupid, Love.
