Utter garbage. Slow simple self indulgent effluence just not worthy of your time. AVOID

I wanted to see this after I saw Jason Reitman and Charlize Theron's other movie, Tully. That was almost a sort of spiritual sequel to this. Charlize Theron is really good in this. Her character is a bitch. The story is somewhat relatable. Trying to relive your glory days seems like a good idea. Not super laugh out loud funny but more of awkward situation funny. Worth a watch.

I came to this film expecting a comedy yes but a little extra too. In the end I found it lacking on both fronts. I see no real growth in the lead character. Yes...we went on a journey with her but I could have done without this film. I may have expected too much but I expected more than what I got in watching this film. Conceptually it was a good idea but it had no soul. It fell apart either in the writing or the execution of the film. There were 1 or 2 scenes where it was approaching a soul but made an about turn before reaching the mark.

The premiss is that Charlize Theron ("Mavis Gary") is an erstwhile successful novelist, now divorced, borderline alcoholic and bored. She heads back to her home town in Minnesota to catch up with her parents - and, more importantly, to hook up with her now married ex-boyfriend, who now has a baby... More
