Spinster

I won't say it's something huge of the movie. Just discuss a topic that single or not via a funny way. Feel life is more complete somehow when single in Gaby case. Be open minded, don't be judgemential, everyone hv their own choice. Love the concept.

You can count on anything Chelsea Peretti is in to illicit at least a few laughs. Funny movie.

This movie is kind of frustrating, because I agree with a lot of the messaging behind it. It's very "a woman doesn't need to find love or have kids to live a successful, fulfilling life". But the implementation of that messaging feels very heavy-handed and clumsy. Characters will randomly ask the main character if she has kids so that they can launch into the whole conversation surrounding it, and the actual dialogue feels kind of stilted.

It's solid messaging though, and very true! Everything surrounding that is competent. Directing is solid, if unremarkable, acting is fine. There's some attempts at emotional stakes that don't always land, but the main character has a developing bond with her niece that I enjoyed.

Overall I'd say it's worth a watch if you don't have anything better going on, but you're not missing anything spectacular if you don't watch it.

It felt to me like this film was more about the substance rather than the style.

What I took from it was the realisation of the stigma and pressure that we as a society put on single women who don't want to have kids. This is an important message however it felt like they started off with this and said, okay let's build our story and characters around it in order to further explain this message, as opposed to having the foundation of the story and characters in place first.

So for most of the film I felt like it was trying to get this message across to me by creating characters with different view points so our main protagonist could make her point. This in turn took away any real interest in the story or connection with the characters and made it feel like I was watching little snippets of interactions.

If you are a Chelsea Pretti fan, or someone who enjoys a slow paced rom-com, then you will like it. For me personally I'm on the fence. Yes bits of it were good but collectively it just didn't grab my attention.

This is relatable on so many levels, as I'm in age when everyone tries so much to glue themselves to someone in order to settle down and fulfill classic cliche expectations, they often forget about their own ambitions on the way.

The movie highlights it can be fun to focus on making yourself happy and successful first, as we don't necessarily need other person to live a good quality life.

I loved the ending and wish there were more inspiring stories out there that contradict what often makes us miserable.

Let's end this biased ageism for good, people. Let's just live !!!
