Not a dime

Rating: 6/10 (2 July 2015)

Boy finds the girl of his parents' dreams. Then a woman finds him.
Interesting rom-com that doesn't lead the laughs home. The best moment was when he interrupted his singing to a gay song as his car came to a halt next to some girls. There's lots of structure and repetition, and you can see how it might work on paper, so I guess the miss is down to the direction.
Wonderful actors, but Moore and Headly should have had more developed characters. The sister was interesting - always withdrawn to her phone screen, then delivers a word of reality. I liked that, but didn't she have problems similar to her brother? The highlight was Johansson in an icy/steamy role.
Pace was fine, music whimsical.
Always a bad sign when you start discussing the actors. Still, it was good - but not that good.
