Dormindo Com as Outras Pessoas

I'm a little surprised at all the negative reviews here. It's hard to imagine what the reviewers found missing. Romance? Comedy? Or both? Because I found plenty of each. I will say that I can see how you need to be able to relate to the lifestyles depicted to appreciate the film. Because if you can't, this might as well be about life on Mars.

This is a smart movie. And the concept is pretty original, considering the difficulty of deviating from the restrictions of the genre. The leads are immensely likable and each able to toss off complex comedic riffs with ease. And I very much enjoyed seeing Adam Scott play the heavy. Not easy to portray a dull-as-donuts bad guy, but he pulled it off.

Despite the "truthiness" of the dialog, the movie does share one thing with all romantic comedies: it's a wet dream for the love hungry. Especially for those folks who juggle and struggle with the reality of modern relationships. The lead characters wear a veneer of cynical sophistication that many of us use as protective shields. But, as is expected from a rom-com, the veneer cracks. And we're glad when it does.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, but be warned: it is a movie for grown ups.

Jason was very funny and charming, and he plays a guy most dudes can relate to.

Jason tells the story from a guy's point of view which is something that is not done in chick clicks, but I guess when you're as charming as Sudeikis, you can pull that off.

Plus Alison Brie was the perfect Straight man for Sudeikis's comedy. It's not as laugh out loud as I hoped it would be but it had a few giggles and how the story was laid out made for a very entertaining film.

I enjoined it.

Let's start by saying, you can't take the title as an accurate representation of this movie. It suits it very well though, just not in a literal sense. Some people didn't like it because they expected an original comedy about open relationships and got a romantic comedy about two emotionally messed up individuals. And if you aren't expecting it to be something else, this movie absolutely nails it.

I know not everyone wants to see a movie about those kind of characters, but I'm really sick of rom-coms about people who have a healthy relationship with sex unless they're a bad guy or someone whose not mean to find love. I thought it was really refreshing to see characters with these issues and the movie was well done. Sure it's a romantic comedy with all the right clichés and cheeky music, and sure the characters aren't relatable to everyone, but for me, it was just perfect.

After paying to watch it I at first regretted not watching the preview as the beginning suggested it just might be too sophomoric and unfunny. But the film actually turned out to be fairly witty and definitely engaging. Yes, it was predictable but the dialogue and scenes were lively enough to make it not matter. To me there was only one major flaw in the movie and that centered on Adam Scott's character of Matthew. First off, he was so unappealing and unattractive, at least to me, that I couldn't understand the attachment of Lainie to him. Why him, and why for so long? Also, to somehow equate Lainie's attachment to Matthew with Jake's philandering really didn't make much sense. But overlooking these discrepancies I was still able to enjoy watching this romantic comedy, just as being able to predict the ending didn't stop me from smiling at it.

The movie moved in a romantic way with comedy sprinkled throughout it in all the cute ways. I hadn't expected the movie to go in the direction it did and was pleasantly surprised with its ending.

Both main characters were relatable and were interesting to follow as they made their way through learning about what love is and what it could be. I found they were both refreshing with their honesty with one another and made me smile knowing that a movie portrays a man and a woman as someone with sense and fault.

Great movie that i'd recommend to friends. But i'm always a sucker for these type of romantic type movies. It's a, seemingly, well done Romantic Comedy to me.
