Lovely movie with a lovely ending!

Rating: 10/10 (9 October 2015)

Let me first reveal that I am a huge Will Ferrell fan even of his absurdist work but this movie was anything but absurd. Not sure how to interpret what occurred with Will's character (but's it not Illuminati trickery, didn't see anything to suggest that and one would have to be super paranoid to arrive at that interpretation from this vehicle)! Will's character was forced into an unwinnable situation (or so it appeared), he had to consciously choose between self-sacrifice and doing the right thing in the process (saving a child) or walking away from the situation and remaining in his most unsatisfactory life! Well he made the right choice and although getting hit by a bus is or should be a death sentence, the same fates that put him in that situation ensure he survives and he's rewarded with the delicious Maggie Gyllenhaal. Not bad huh? Wonderful movie that kept me engaged throughout!
