Yes there was a romantic budding relationship as a sub-plot, but it really was about dealing with sex-addiction. Very revealing and profound. Thank you for this movie.

I loved this movie!!! bravo for the brave souls who tackled it! I own a masters as a movie connoisseur, and have some familiarity with the 12 step program, myself. Amazing and righteously done! This film is so close to the experiences of an addict and or co-addict, that I was utterly convinced that the many who worked on this film really have a grasp on how quickly ones path can take a dark turn, if he/she is honest enough with themselves to broach this topic and turn themselves over to 12 step community and a higher power to get the help they need.This film elegantly captures the reality of "the life". Grace and nurture are definitely found and used, here, in the face of such grim subject matter of this film, which for some means life and death. This is a beautiful compassionate film which shows not only how tough relationships are in a "normal persons" life, but goes out of its way to show how much harder they are for those who face the imbalance of sexual/relational addiction in ones life; but it offers it in a compassionate mannerism of hope and faith in the light of such difficulties for those who are afflicted. WE still don't know what causes the mind this imbalance, but Im grateful that there are those out in the entertainment biz, who handle such delicate matters with a grace, compassion, love for our human brothers and sisters who suffer with this (and similar maladies), and maybe even offer a light to a better path...perhaps even an easier softer approach for many circumstance covered in this piece of work. Its not just a piece of art, but educational informative work and sometimes shows we can approach life with all the joy, humor and brevity needed to get us through one day at a time. Even one those played their part were showing the honesty of how humans behave and how forgiveness and love goes sooo far in the human condition of recovery. Thanks to all who worked on this film; its beautifully honest while being real.

Somewhere between Indy cinema and mainstream Hollywood as well as treading between comedy and drama, this is not an implication that it suffers from an identity crisis but more of an affirmation that genre boundaries do not have to be definite to produce an acceptable result.

The main corpus of the story is three sex addicts and their struggle to overcome it and it makes a point that a paramount factor in recovery is not so much the discipline to abstain from sexual stimulants but being surrounded by people who you can depend upon in the good as well as the bad days. In other words, community is paramount.

Overall, it is both a pleasant and poignant story that explores the isolation and darkness associated with this condition. A minus point would be the complete lack of background information on the illness although this is more than compensated in the battle these individual give not only to get better but to be accepted by others.

So a film that is both amusing with some is no little thing.

Thanks for Sharing won't be for everybody, but if you're up for it, you'll get to see an incredible performance from Mark Ruffalo. If you're not up for it, go ahead and pick something else. You can pick any number of his other movies to see a great performance. This one deals with sex addiction, and it's very informative and revealing.

As Gwyneth Paltrow's character says when she learns her new boyfriend (Mark) has a 30-day chip in his pocket, "Isn't that just something guys say when they get caught cheating?" Most people don't understand how sex addiction truly transforms a person. After watching Mark Ruffalo, you'll understand. There's a particular scene where he lets sexual thoughts overtake him, and his face contorts so much he becomes a different person right in front of your eyes. It's scary, but it's a true testament to what a great actor he is. He's different in every single movie he makes, from 13 Going on 30 to Shutter Island. In this film, he makes you understand how difficult it is to abstain from sexual temptation when it's ever-present in advertising, fashion trends, movies, the internet, and at the forefront of modern relationships.

There are representatives of many different types of people who attend the meetings. Tim Robbins is Mark's sponsor, someone who's licked his addiction for years and has a healthy, meaningful relationship with his wife Joely Richardson. Alicia Moore (also known in the singing world as Pink) is a newcomer who recognizes her self-destructing patterns but doesn't know how to change. Josh Gad is another newcomer who doesn't take his recovery seriously, but instead lies about his progress.

You can imagine how heavy this movie is. It's not titillating, and it doesn't glamorize the problem. It's a rare, frank exposure of a problem not many people understand. And I know I haven't complemented him enough, so here's one more: Mark Ruffalo is a remarkable actor.

I actually laughed pretty hard in this. What I was really impressed with was the contrasting emotions throughout the entire movie and it dealt with a somewhat overlooked issue in society these days. The movie didn't really slow down at all and there was always something happening. Acting is great but that's to be expected with Mark Ruffalo and Gwenyth Paltrow. Josh Gad is hilarious as always and definitely has all the laugh out loud moments. While I'm not a fan of P!nk in any capacity, she holds herself well in this role. I'm not sure why it got a fairly average 6.3 on IMDb and a 54 on Metacritic. Perhaps it is a bit confrontational in some aspects for some people but it isn't advertised as a feel good romantic comedy. Even if you don't see it in the theatres, make sure you get it on DVD or stream it, you won't regret it.
