Well, you get three choices...

It's great when a movie is titled in such a manner that you can use one of the words to describe your thoughts on it. So, I'll use each word to give a quick review on the movie and a big thanks to Sarah for treating me to what I think most people know is a rarity, me going to the movies!

Crazy - Steve Carell as a bit of a "sex" figure. It's not that the humorous guys can't get the ladies (ahem) but I think the transformation that tried to occur really wasn't as dramatic as it could have been with another actor. I think his mannerisms work in the movie and there were certainly some humorous moments that he provided. I guess my block with him is that I never became a fan of The Office, so I don't have a pull to watch him in things he does.

Stupid - The plot. The story line. Okay, I'm being harsh. Rent the movie with limited expectations. I think people could be swerved a bit (yeah, I used my blog name) by one of the scenes, and certainly the son had some endearing qualities. But I had higher hopes. And by that, I mean I had a hope.

Love - The song that rolled us into credits. It's called "Blood" by The Middle East. It now appears as a song to check out in the "New to You" section. I checked out a few other songs from their album and EP, wasn't overly impressed, but I'll give it another shot later. Just an interesting voice, upbeat, really tied in the last scene effectively. And kudos to Sarah for knowing the John Legend song as the opener without hearing a lyric, "Save Room" I don't think had airplay, but I could be wrong.

Ultimately, I need to see another movie soon. Because I'm not happy to respond to the question of "so what movies have you seen lately in the theater" with "Crazy Stupid Love" by any stretch.
