Overall an entertaining, slightly offbeat RomCom

Rating: 8/10 (23 January 2013)

I enjoyed this movie.
Both Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper give great performances. I found it refreshing that the two lead characters were dysfunctional and somewhat mentally ill. I wish J.Law's character had been developed more - as much as Bradley Cooper's character was.
There were funny moments and sad/bittersweet moments. Maybe I'm too dark but I wish the story hadn't ended on such a happy note. The happy ending is what made this movie an 8 instead of a 10 for me. If it had an unusual ending, a truly different and quirky ending, instead of a Hollywood happy-ending, I probably would have liked it more.
Nevertheless it is way better than the vast majority of RomComs released.
