    okay for older teens, not really interesting or appropriate for children

    I was dismayed to find that Clare Dane's character was so depressed that she was simply yearning for affection. She didn't care if she loved the person or not! There was not a time that she was able to pick herself up on her own and find someone in a healthy way. She was constantly depending on someone else to make her happy and that message can be very damaging for young girls.

    ok flick for adults

    It wasn't too sappy or too extreme with the romance. However, the movie plot was bad all around, and the sex makes it inappropiate for anybody under 17

    Self Absorption Embodied

    I was really hoping to like this movie more but it was just okay. It felt likely a slight less neurotic Broken Flowers. Martin's character is self-absorbed and while capable of tenderness, terrified of it. This is a mature movie and not for kids at all. There's vivid sex, drinking, and not much happening in the morals department.

    For adults only -- some good old fashioned humor

    This is an enjoyable, thought-provoking movie. The storyline is simple, yes complicated, and the characters are simple, yet gradually develop into more complex characters. Quite a few good laughs, a few deep moments, and something you may talk about for a few days after viewing. Mirabel's character is worthy of on-screen recognition. The only drawback I felt was Steve Martin narrating the story...it should have been narrated by someone other than himself. Definitely worth the trip to the theatre.
