I left this movie feeling I’d enjoyed it and was going it give it 4 stars. The setup was good, the situation was interesting, the actors were good, the script was funny. But as I thought about it more overnight, I thought it all felt a little too easy. I didn’t quite buy the ending–or did I? And I wasn’t emotionally moved. So I’m deducting half of a star for leaving such doubts in my mind. It’s a good comedy, less good as a dramedy.
Later, I think I figured out what bothered me here. This was a romantic comedy centered around a woman trying to kill herself (over another guy).
(Originally rated 3.5 stars.)
