Review: I Give It A Year
I Give It A Year
Cert: 15 / 97 mins / Dir. Dan Mazer
Are you sure about that? I gave it an hour and a half and that was too much*1. It's better than the trailer, but still not good quite enough to be its own film.
Essentially a collection of some very funny sketches mixed with awkward stinkers, and like most rom/coms these days, its humour is stymied by All The Whining™.
Some great performances*2, but it doesn't work as a whole.
Kinda.
Kinda.
Kinda.
DVD.
Yes.
No.
Nope.
*1 Yes, I am hilarious.
*2 Minnie Driver is the best thing in this film, seriously. And even Stephen Merchant and Anna Faris are relatively good, and I usually find them to be cinematic Kryptonite.
