I'm no film genius or cinema-file. I just enjoy movies, movies that aren't about superheroes or space adventures. I disagree with the bad reviews of this movie. I just watched to through, two times in the past two days, and I rather enjoyed it. Maybe it appeals more to women because we can see ourselves in the female characters. They are quite complex and I feel well acted by Jemima and Lola Kirke. Every woman I know can relate to feeling trapped or disconnected like these two young women. I found Jamie Dornan's performance layered and really different from anything I've seen him in. Ben Mendelson was perfect as the aging rock star. He was the character I was most rooting for throughout the film. He added some humor to the film as well. Billy Crystal and Jennifer Grey were lovely as the charismatic rabbi and his supportive wife. I found the writing very witty and interesting. I guess I just don't see all the flaws the other reviewers are finding. I enjoyed the film very much. I recommend it to any woman who likes intelligent quirky characters and films.
