    Yes it hurts

    This is a basic get some money rom com without much com and not a lot of rom either. I cannot but think they just produced this out of the romcom sausage machine and used the quantity rather than quality attitude in the hopes it would be a success.

    A Generic Title for a Generic Rom-Com

    Stop me if you've heard this plot before: Wife leaves hubby because he's become too boring and inattentive. Hubby must somehow reconnect with the youthful self she fell in love with in order to win her back.

    In the interim, the writer and director have to come up with a bunch of "funny" stuff to happen to Hubby before he finally achieves his goal. This includes him learning to be a stud and hooking up with a host of really unappealing ladies, including Jenna Elfman as his sushi-crazed secretary and Janeane Garofalo as an unorthodox Orthodox Jew. But the "funny" stuff is on the order of him going nuts at an 80's Karaoke night, and bowling badly while under the influence of cannabis fudge. I'd call these scenes "funny-adjacent" rather than funny. They're similar to scenes you'd find in a funny movie, minus the laughs.

    Bottom Line: Richard Grant is no Hugh Grant, but this film is watchable--just.

    Love hurts, this movie doesn't

    ...unless you count the pain in your cheeks from laughing too much. I certainly had from time to time.

    Anyhow, when I heard about this movie I seriously thought that it will be just another heartache, breakup, deep-thinking, insert-any-cheap-cliché-here movie, because of the title. I mean, movies with such titles usually smells like recycling the same old breakup story we've all heard for about one hundred times, if not more. The opening scene just made my bad feeling stronger with his "You've gone heavy on the cheese, honey" and her bath robe, and the flowers on the sidewalk.

    Boy, was I wrong...This movie is damn hilarious! It made me laugh so hard that if I was having milk, I'm sure it'd have blew trough my nose. The father - son relationship didn't left me with the awkward feeling of something unreal, god no, I wish everybody could have a dad like that. Mom could have had a bit more time in the movie, but this was close to perfect, in my eyes.

    Loved it, the craziness, lightness, the way it was always fun and alive and made you cry because of laughing, not because of sadness. Besides, dad's hot. A 9 from me, definitely go watch it, it'll make your day!

    WHAT!!! 28 year old playing 17...who they kidding

    WHAT!!! 28 year old playing 17! Who they kidding? Why do they do this?

    Don't they ever learn.

    Stop this stupidity.

    Use actors of the age they are playing.

    To use somebody almost twice the age they are supposed to be playing is ridiculous.

    And to the actor: why do you let them do this to you? You have no shame. Are you only in it for the money and and don't care about letting the producers and directors walk all over you? Act your age not somebody half it.
