It's not what you think, but it's funny as hell. Which is also the case at the after hours club, but for other reasons I'll not get into here. As It Gets are there, only the economics and sex have been reversed. There's no bigot here, no prominent gays in the supporting cast so the comedy, with more than its share of New York in-jokes, keeps the thing bobbing just above the surface of the incredibly depressing lives that make do for the first two thirds of the film. Then there's a pause in the action.
Several months pass.
Which is kind of like life. Here's the interesting thing about the Crankified. The dating couples, younger than I, all liked the flick in general. As It Gets, his date was probably dreading the trip to the local Starbucks for refueling his fervor. On average, a first run movie ticket will run you Eight Bucks.
