Cute Stuff, D-mmit

Rating: 8/10 (24 February 2010)

I give this an 8, considering the genre.
It's a g-ddamn cute film, okay? I could have done without the little kid sh-t, but Zooey Deschanel is cute (and also extremely fine), and that Joseph Gordon-Leavitt kid is cute, too. I liked the cute musical number, and the humor often ventured into clever, even mocking and abstract areas. But that was probably due to the original structure of the story So, not everything was cute. But still pretty cute. Also, the ending wasn't what I expected. Maybe a little bleaker would have been nice, but the movie had to sustain its cuteness to a certain degree. Basically, anything's better than the type of wet, stenching, bio-hazardous hobo discharge that passes for romantic comedy these days, and this one wins points for imagination and Deschanel.
