Un weekend al limite

I was actually very surprised by this movie and how good it was from start to finish. The time flew by and the actors all did a great job. I won't give any spoilers away and don't want to be so vague but it's basically a movie about a group of friends that are on a weekend to try and help their buddy deal with feelings that have been suppressed. There are some very funny moments and the actors do a great job with what they were given to make you feel as though you are there with them. The way they all interact was quite well done and you get a real sense that these people actually care deeply about one another. It's a comedy with a serious topic and they do an excellent job. I highly recommend this indie type movie that deals with sadness with a bit of partying and friends with a good sense of humor.

A light movie to watch. Good jokes and comedy but not entirely , and that's why we have too much haters.

A random party weekend with a beauty message : "This is a story about friendship"

And no guys is not trying to be "The Hangover" ...

I absolutely loved this movie. I had seen a bunch of mixed reviews but took a chance anyways because I love Thomas Middleditch and the trailer was really intriguing. After watching, I am absolutely shocked this is only rated at a 5.6 stars. I loved this movie so much. I laughed and I cried, masterfully done! I highly recommend this movie.

This movie is not a comedy. There are some funny parts and the actors and actresses all play their characters perfectly, but it's not a comedy. This is more like a Lost in Translation or Garden State. It's a movie about people gathering after an event and the events that transpire during that time. As much as this is a Thomas Middleditch movie, Nick Kroll and Jenny Slate really steal the show. I think they may have the most dialogue in the movie with Brett Gelman coming in third. It's a really well written and well acted movie. It won't change your life, but it won't ruin it either. Take some time out to watch a movie about events and the people within them, even if the conclusion isn't what you thought it would be.

The brief summary given about this story creates a different idea in ones head than what the movie actually delivers. And what the movie offers is a story of four complex guys that have come together to help Joshy get past his depression over the death of his fiancé. And as the weekend of trying to have fun evolves we learn that Joshy is just one of the guys having his own problem. Each one must deal with his own emotional self and girlfriend relationship disappointments.

Joshy must deal with the death of his girlfriend, Ari questions his marriage, Alex gets dumped by his girlfriend of ten years, Eric has commitment issues, and Greg can't seem to find a girlfriend. Each character keeps his feelings bottled up except Alex who tries to rationalize his feelings and is willing to talk to anyone who will listen.

The term 'male bonding' has been used to describe this movie but I believe it has nothing to do with bonding. Four of the five are close friends from the start and Greg was the 'guy who came along for the fun'. The story is actually about trying to avoid the issues at hand through booze, drugs, and strippers! Then near the end the five are forced by circumstance to come to terms with themselves and deal with life as best as one can.

This is a talky movie and each actor does an excellent job at being the character they were cast to be. My favorite was Ari & Jodi - they seemed so perfect together as a couple. Director/writer: Jeff Baena succeeds in creating a story of what life is like more-so in reality than what we want it to be.
