Adds nothing new to the genre

Rating: 4/10 (28 August 2012)

Major let down. I watched this movie enticed by the stellar cast. I thought "how bad can it be?". Turns out it can be pretty bad. The only bright point is some funny moments close to the end of the movie. I find it annoying that it tries to be profound, but actually doesn't say anything that hasn't be said before about love, relationships, divorce.
Ryan Gosling is very convincing in the beginning of the movie and the photoshop line that Emma Stone utters is one of the best I have ever heard. The son is pretty good as is the babysitter, but the "lead" actors, aka the married couple, never convinced me that they were struggling with their marriage.
