Review of Crazy, Stupid, Love

Well, I have to say that this movie wasn't doing much for me other than helping me pass time while working out...until the "Dirty Dancing" moment. Then, like a sucker, I was drawn in, despite all the inevitable, predictable connections between the characters. This movie has a decent cast, though I do not like Analeigh Tipton. I found her to be quite unattractive, way too skinny with a big head, and just not a good actress.

I do enjoy Steve Carell and Emma Stone, and Marisa Tomei was fun to watch in this, though her part was a bit small and anyone could have played it. I don't honestly understand why women find Ryan Gosling attractive, other than, with his shirt off, he's in some pretty fantastic shape. But clothed? The movie as a whole was better than average, but not fantastic/excellent. It's watchable, for one viewing, then time to move on to something else.
