M F @MFox2026 Jul 12 Just great. The writers had a blast giving the finger to standard narrative structure. Then again, couple times they stepped in it for an instant, but mostly fun, well acted and refreshing. REALLY well acted I should say. See more Alain E @AlainE Jun 25 A quirky movie about human relationships and various obsessions. It very successfully avoids easy solutions and cheap happy endings. Even minor characters, like the heroine’s sister, are well fleshed out. Juliet, the English protagonist is in a long term relationship with a guy who idolizes a minor American rock musician. The long term is cut short when the guy meets a younger woman at work. Juliet on the other hand, almost by accident gets to know her ex’s idol. He is a good hearted middle aged unemployed guy, who has fathered many children with various partners and raised none, with the exception of the most recent. His current address is the garage of an ex wife. As they interact some of the characters become more mature, while the obsessed ex remains childish. There is a strong selection of songs, many interpreted by Ethan Hawke. On Prime. See more James F. @BarryRottenTomatoes012961 Apr 3 Great Acting,, heart felt, unpredictable movie. See more Par H @Parhwy Feb 17 Rose Byrne and Ethan Hawke, Chris O'Dowd combine in this quaint romcom with a dramatic heart. I only had one problem with this film: in the very good scene where Ethan is in hospital and he has exes and kids going off at him… the bedside monitor stays at 117/72 even though he is clearly agitated. That’s dumb directing. The set design and locations are so believable, I enjoyed the houses, the crockery, the knickknacks. The story and plot tick along easily enough although Hawke sending O’Dowd an unreleased album when he thinks he and his cadre are morons, is a weird self-own. Oh, and Hawke is invisible… yet he lives in a community using his real name… in 2018… Not believable. The theme I took away from this film is living in a failed past, betrayal, regret, forgiveness, new roads. I have watched this twice now. Rewatch? Maybe, maybe.
