RottenTomatoes Score: 79% (6.3/10) Box Office: The movie has just opened in limited cinemas and on VOD, but it's tough to imagine it rustling up too much business with such a low-key release, even if the budget is evidently pretty small. The Verdict: Computer Chess writer-director Andrew Bujalski makes a confident move to more mainstream fare with this unexpectedly charming romantic comedy. Guy Pearce and Cobie Smulders have superb chemistry throughout, and the film also gives the wildly under-appreciated Kevin Corrigan plenty of space to carve out a memorable role for himself. Despite the quirky tone and sometimes flaccid pacing, there's a ton of personal truth in this movie, and that's what makes it soar far above a premise which has been done in variation time and time again.
Stay at home dad who spends as much time teaching his kids the merits of Martin Scorsese as possible (against the missus' wishes).
General video game, TV and film nut. Occasional sports fan. Full time loon.
