The 10 Year Plan

Totally contrived and implausible plot, but it ended on a charming positive note. Not much chance that someone young and hot and addicted to the LA Grindr scene is suddenly going to shake that loose to form a stable, monogamous marriage. Negative portrayal of gay men being hyper promiscuous, mean spirited and detached with their hookups. But at least they weren't smoking or doing hard drugs. The two central characters became likable enough to root for them, but there was no basis given that would warrant any shred of faith that their re-imagined relationship would last more than a few months.

Modest and nice. This can be the fair definition of this film who , not very impressive or inspired, has the gift to not be boring.

It is very strange to see as virtue the absence of originality of a film. But, in this case, just works in beautiful way. A story of friendship and a plan reminding old fashion romances. Romance as embroidery of a lot of cliches, dialogues and situations more than familiar and a sort of spring air. Inspired and, in few scenes, less inspired dialogues, fine humor and just fair turns.

One of films, very easy, very comfortable, perfect after a tough day. Its real good point - Michael Rothhaar as the neighbor.

Bad acting, cheesy clichés, stilted dialogue, beautiful male eye candy. It's a pretty mediocre film, but I watched it to the end because it was nice just watching hot guys mooning over each other. Of course, they had the chemistry of, well, two C-grade actors that had just met, but whatchya gonna do?

I found the predictability of the plot enjoyable and the actors fun to watch.

Of particular note, the protagonist's portrayal as an obsessive compulsive romantic felt authentic (even though hyperbolicly acted) as a type of person seeking love something I could connect with. The movie didn't try to change that part of the main character even while it showed pit falls that the anxious style of attachment commonly develops.

The main characters being super cute helps a lot for the enjoyment of this movie and all in all, I found it to be a completely enjoyable "alone on a Friday night with a bottle of red wine" sort of movie.

Ok, I'll start out by saying that no, this movie is not genius and it's not great. Movies like this aren't exactly meant to be genius though, I knew what I was getting myself into with this one. To me, this was simply a cute, fun feel good movie. I was alone and on Netflix one night, and thought it would be light and fluffy, and it was. I say all that because you have to know what you're in for. If you pick this movie apart and scrutinize it, you'll probably have a bad time. It's predictable and it is very cheesy. The reason I enjoyed it so much, is because I liked the actors and their characters. I thought they were likable and I liked seeing them together. I also liked the supporting members of the cast and the character they played. The writing is far from brilliant, but like I said, it's all fluff and idealistic. Can't say if others will like it as much as I did, but I really had fun with it.
