    MOST THINGS ABOUT THE STORY COULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN OR ARE BELIEVABLE = 1/2 Star

    STORY ISN'T BORING OR REPETITIVE = 1/2 Star



    This is a cool film with an older vibe that I really enjoyed a lot. The main character really does a terrific job at being a mentally challenged hopeless romantic. There are huge splashed of dark comedy and the music is catchy. A great start for the great filmmaker, Alexander Payne.
