Steve Carell plays a man, Cal, blindsided by his wife's sudden request for a divorce. While wallowing in self pity at the local bar, Jacob Ryan Gossling decides to turn him into a project, and introduce him to the wonderful world of womanizing But you've seen that from the previews right?
What comes next is a great look at love, from first crushes to long term marriage. This movie is the perfect blend of funny and sweet the entire theatre was laughing throughout. Great performances from the whole cast, including a surprisingly refreshing change for Steve Carell. The writing was perfect, the pacing was great A perfect date movie! Not overly sappy and not typical "chick flick" drivel.

Hollywood Icons, Then and Now. See the gallery. That's right. Not that the film is an exercise in cerebral arthouse cinema, full of quirky eccentrics and fatalistic malcontents.
Fogelman's lovelorn castaways are people first, characters second, and their lives are unpredictable, even when predictability presses in from all sides. Take Jacob and Hannah's first night together, easily one of the most infectious, funny, moving and believable first-nights on the romcom circuit. It's a rich, layered scene, but it's also breezy, effortless and charming.
The stuff of real movie magic. We learn an incredible amount of information about Jacob in a few short lines He doesn't offer up all his secrets; he doesn't have to. Anyone paying attention will assemble the pieces on their own and personalize the puzzle in ways even the most carefully constructed screenplay never could.
Or take Cal and Emily. Ficarra and Requa don't ask us to choose sides; there's plenty of empathy for everyone. Come to think of it, there is no villain in Crazy, Stupid, Love. No antagonist, save misunderstanding and inadequacy. David Lindhagen? Infidelity aside, he's a nice guy. You can almost picture him as the Everyman in his own alternate Crazy, Stupid, Love. Every character, young or old, naive or jaded, seasoned or inexperienced, grapple with love and heartache and come away better and wiser for it, no matter how awkward, uncomfortable, painful or undeniably, affectingly sweet a process it might be.
Ficarra and Requa don't pound on the usual romcom comedic notes either. It never fails: romantic comedies present divorce and adultery as legitimate sources of laughs.
They're not. Divorce isn't funny. Adultery isn't funny. Broken families aren't funny. It allows each one to be as sad and tragic as it really is; it allows its characters to pine, to struggle, to squirm Through sickness and in health, till death do us part. It finds humor in the situations that develop as a result, but never in the division or betrayal.
Ironically, it's a more optimistic film as a result, and some will criticize it for its lack of cynicism, even though that criticism will sound something like this: "it isn't crazy or stupid enough," "it starts strong but ends on a sappy note," or "it wraps up too neatly after going in so many intriguing directions. And Fogelman, Ficarra and Requa aren't the only ones pulling their weight.
Everyone on screen has the kind of chemistry other rom-coms would kill for. Love is as smartly cast as it is pitch-perfectly performed, as it is sharply penned and confidently directed. And you aren't likely to find a romantic comedy that will appeal to both sides of the gender gap as readily as this one.
The only thing that doesn't work? Marisa Tomei, who belongs in a different film, does a disservice to the few scenes she has, and can't disappear fast enough.
