Crash Pad

Actually as it seems, all you need is good actors. Is this otherwise a juvenille romantic comedy? I think you have strong arguments for that. You could also argue: relax, laugh a little. Have fun with it, just go with the flow and roll with it.

Now depending if you can do that, you will be entertained. The actors really do their best. Even in the bad moments, when our main character feels down (and that happens a lot), you stick with him and you want his journey to succeed ... he may be a hopeless romantic, but he also has other sides to him. Which make him more colorful and tough to pin down - for better or worse.

Really good performances as I already said. You just have to dig the humor ... which you'll hopefully do.

Didn't expect that.

It seems, some people have lost their ability to judge class.

"Crash Pad" is a true gem amongst the numerous romantic comedies that try but ultimately fail to present some real heart and wit.

What expecially stands out with this movie is the witty, polished dialogues.

I haven't heard people talk like this in a long time - it reminds me of the great screwball comedies of the past.

Most movies of today forget that there is a duty to fulfill: To produce memorable characters and quotable, unique dialogue. "Crash Pad" succeeds massively.

I haven't had so much fun in a long time, and on top there's real heart in it.

Don't listen to the bad reviews. You won't regret watching this.

Charming and full of heart with a great cast and a good script.

Won't get the credit it deserves.

On the surface, Crash Pad is the typical men are like this/women are like that/nothing matters just get laid comedy, but there's more to it than what meets the eye at first glance.

The acting is frankly brilliant. Domhnall Gleeson's comedic genius really shines through; I can't wait to see more of him in this genre. His chemistry with Haden Church is hilarious, and Christina Applegate's emotional performance makes you feel for her cardboard-character.

The script tries too hard at times, but the one-liners are very memorable, and the jokes that land land hard. I loved how over-the-top and self-aware it was; the best comedies are always comedies of comedies.

I'm not sure who the target audience was. Fans of romcoms might find it offensive; romcom haters might find it too silly and clichéd; but if you don't have expectations and let this movie surprise you, you'll have a fun time.

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

I really like this cast, and I think it took a strong actress like Christina Applegate to play her role.

This movie is all about "being a man", or what it is to "be a man" with some female manipulation, mixed with manipulation within relationships.

Domhnall Gleeson really embodies the "loser" persona, and manages to show his range throughout the movie, giving a good lead to the story, especially contrasting against Thomas Haden Church. I don't know when he became the American symbol for manliness, but he can definitely wear it well.

There honestly isn't much too it, a lot of the movie is "I'll Make a Man Out of You" on repeat, but it's somewhat charming none the less, and there is a lot of character progression on all sides.

Definitely not a waste of your time, but there are a lot of movie choices out there, and I can't blame you if you find something that people rave about instead.
