Crazy, Stupid, Love

I went to see Crazy, Stupid, Love today and have been desiring to see it for some time now. For one I was drawn by the title, that it is a string of adjectives describing the last word. I also was drawn to the idea of finding someone and them indirectly changing you, making you want to be a better person. The humor in the previews was an enticing factor as well. Oh and lets not forget also did not hurt that Ryan Gosling was in it.

I found that this movie was quite raw in emotion. I enjoyed the easy banter and laughter between the characters, which shows the comfort level between them. Watching the effortless dialogue makes you also comfortable. It is good when watching a movie that you begin to feel what the characters are feeling. I found that throughout this movie I was laughing, cringing, hiding my face because of what the characters were going through. I find that to be a good movie.

I have not been the biggest fan of Emma Stone, but this movie made me a believer. I found that she was quite quirky and thought that some of that cannot be taught. Some of her facial expressions or reactions were very natural and not always completely beautiful, which made them believable.

Ryan Gosling was beautiful in this movie and I loved his confidence. I do not think that any woman, or man to be honest, watching this movie did not fall victim to his beauty, charm, one-liners, and wardrobe style.

Julianne Moore and Steve Carell had amazing chemistry and showed to us that marriage, if left idle, can become something that no-one ever desired for it to be.

I loved this movie and I want to own it when it comes out on DVD, I do not say that very often.

I give it a 8/10
