Cringe

Rating: 5/10 (2 April 2013)

I didn't care for this film. In fairness, I didn't realize it was a romantic comedy. I expected a heavy drama for some reason.
The basics of the storyline are clichÃ©'d, like all RomComs. I couldn't help but suspect that they tacked on the dance scenes to profit from the "celebrity dancing" craze currently on television.
I don't think Bradley Cooper is a particularly good actor and I expect him to be doing "Indie films" within a couple of years. The scenes with him and the female lead are cringeworthy and lack chemistry.
This isn't a terrible film, but for the life of me I don't understand why it's getting such high ratings. I suppose it's more watchable than your average RomCom, which isn't saying much.
This movie is also very blue collar.
