Crazy, Stupid, Love

Steve Carrell, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, Julianne Moore

Clever, amusing script which takes us on an improbable tour through the vagaries of contemporary love. The story spins off in wild directions before coming together in a classic (sort 0f) happy ending. All takes place in movie reality...eg a singles bar where everyone is good-looking...but I didn't care.

The only real misstep was a minor character (Marisa Tomei) directed to be way over the top. Also featured a preternaturally sophisticated 13 year old...a la Juno.

Good, crowd-pleasing junk.
