    I genuinely enjoyed this film. Even more after multiple viewings. You must take it for what it is (which is a light hearted romantic comedy) yet its humor is not of the typical Hollywood romantic comedy. The boys of stella give it some edge while managing to maintain a seamless blend with the romantic aspects of the movie. Its not a "mean" edge, or a "hip" edge or a "dirty" edge that the humor has, its more of an absurdist edge that the Stella troupe is known for. However, where Stella can often fail (and succeed for that matter) is when they go too far, and the entire storyline and every moment becomes absurd, and things risk getting to a point where they are no longer funny. I think the boys have found the perfect showcase of their brand of humor in this film because the absurdist aspects are thoughtfully sprinkled on top of a solid foundation of a cookie cutter romantic comedy story. Much of the film is smile and giggle funny, with a few moments of absolute humour nukes. Most importantly, you grow to genuinely like and care about the characters in the film. Justin Theroux is genius as Bradley.
