Would probably have rated this a star lower, but the really low reviews are not deserved.
First of all the cast is great, starting with the young couple, Then the noxious Wall Street frat boys , and of course Eddie Marsan , who is always believable, especially here as the head honcho.
My major problem is the engagement angle, and the unrealistic parents , especially the voice acting before you actually meet them It is was obvious that once she got the promotion, with the ensuing back and forth , this relationship was doomed. For some reason the screenwriters kept the engagement party arc , go on way too long . Giving the whole second half of the movie a dumb down of this now toxic couple . The actual engagement party with a beer bottle being smashed on potential grooms head, and then the ensuing rape of the bride to be. While the families are no where to be seen, is really far fetched. Plus after she gets a half a million dollar commission, she still returns to the crappy apartment, with a now dangerous sad sack , instead of checking into a nice hotel for a week or two That being said , thanks to the cast, the movie is still kinda good.
