Title: dont believe the hype
Product review: I cant believe the hype this film is getting - or maybe I just didn't get it. It starts off ok enough Clooney in cruise control playing George Clooney just like every other film he is in. Then oh oh trout pout love interest Vera Farmiga shows up - with the worst body double you have ever seen for the nude scene - and the film becomes yet another sappy rom-com.But what makes this worse is that while it tries to take itself seriously regarding lay-offs, unemployment, love marriage, whats the point of it all blah blah - it runs off down the buddy movie path with that old cliché of the old pro (Clooney) and the young eager but green new recruit ( Anna Kendrick ) who Clooney takes under his wing and guides her through the job while she helps him become a better person.Oh dear how many movies have tread this wearisome path. Not interesting not funny not particularly well acted - how on earth did this get such glowing reviews from the critics?
