I felt like this film was trying to much to be one of those sublte comedies (or dramedies) with quirky characters in mundane situations, sometimes even trying very hard to show how mundane, how “real” the settings where . Even though the film had some beautifull photography, like being accentuated by a photo studio style of linghting, I just didn’t care about the characters, in comedic moments, it just felt too forced and as a drama their storyline simply involved a love triangle that doesn’t make its mix of melancholy and self pity too rewarding, it’s ultimately bland. Steve Martin just wanted to be taken seriously, but I just couldn’t stop thinking of Lost in Translation and Bill Murray.
