An average movie

“To be honest, I wasn't really sure what to expect from this movie but since I have a weak spot for Simon Pegg, I though I might as well check it out. Well, even though it didn't turn out to be anything really amazing, I thought it was actually a decent watch. Basically, the only real issue with this movie was that the way the 2 main characters met each other was just too convoluted in spite of some strong efforts from Simon Pegg and Lake Bell. Eventually, I wish they simply met on a typical blind date but it seems that you can't have nowadays a romantic-comedy without getting served a rather far-fetched concept. Still, Pegg and Bell were both actually pretty good and they had some very nice chemistry together so, thanks for them, the whole thing still actually worked. Concerning Lake Bell,” read more

BradWesley123's Movie Journal- March 2016 (31 movies items)

" Netflix- 1hr. 28min. First Viewing While it's deeply rooted in typical rom-com traditions, the film uses them to it's advantage, crafting one of the genre's best in years. With a, relatively, fresh story and a pair of winning performances from Lake Bell (who sports a surprisingly strong British accent) and Simon Pegg, as well as standout assistance from Rory Kinnear as the ultimate creeper, Man Up is fun from start to finish. The middle section drags a bit, bit the other to a strong enough to o"

"May 5 "I've got a confession to make. I'm not really your blind date, Jack." "What? Are you even 24?" "No! Add an other 10. I was just merely trying to meet my mate in the modern world." This was a decent movie. It's nothing too special, but it's a decent movie of the genre. The chemistry between Simon Pegg and Lake Bell is believable, it's funny, and it does have it's heart in the right place. It's a decent movie that's worth watching at least once. "

"First viewing - March 7th Recommended by VierasTalo I think it's safe to say this is the best film I've seen Simon Pegg in that's NOT directed by Edgar Wright. If I'm wrong on that, then it's the best one he's been the lead in anyway. I love the dynamic & chemistry between Pegg & Lake Bell in this, and the story is full of memorable moments. Most of the time with rom-coms a lot of it is old hat & I'm not so deeply invested in the characters, but this time around the ending is well-earned & I wa"
