Took my daughter and her friend this past weekend (Freshman).

We loved this movie!!! Laughed out loud funny in many spots!! We want to see it again -- (it may be a one shot kind of movie though, not an over and over kind)

Orlando is great but kirstin takes a little while -- only question movie left me a little disappointed with -- What was wrong with the shoes??

If Orlando had not been in this movie, it would have been a real bore. Now he is DREAMY!

Is this similar to Garden State? Better? Worse?

i liked it too. hadn't really considered it being like garden state, so as to answer that, it was just kind of different. i liked it. as good as garden state.

orlando reminds me so much of evil dr will from bb2. i think that makes me find him less attractive than he is. lol.

I'm an Orlando fan, so was happy to see him finally taking on a contemporary role. I also usually like Cameron Crowe movies. I'm sorry to say that I was disappointed with this film. I thought Orlando was fine given the material he was working with. I did not like the Kirsten Dunst character at all, so the romance fell flat for me. IRL I would advise any male friend of mine to stay far away from a woman as controlling as Dunst's character. It was like Cameron was trying to tell too many stories with this one. The romance seemed forced into a story about a man's relationship with his family.
