Funny Thing About Love

Clearly not a 10! I have no idea how anyone could honestly rate it that high. It was nice and clean but the acting was daily soap opera or below. Overall plot was OK but much of the " comedy" was forced. I am not sure why Barry Corbin was there, I am a fan but the grumpy grandpa role was forced to say the least. The eventual outcome was not hard to predict as the current boyfriend was clearly a over acted phoney not suited to the female lead. So the interest is just how the impending train wreck will unfold. The acting got better and more natural as the movie progressed. Not a bad way to pass a little time on a rainy afternoon.

Do yourself a favor and skip this one. No idea where all these 10-star reviews are coming from. This is barely a movie yet somehow still manages to commit severe crimes against cinema.

A lot of these 10-star reviews are praising this film for being "clean". "Oh, it's so nice to have something clean to just put on in the background". Are you ok my friend? There are infinitely better things to put on for the whole family to watch. I feel sorry for anyone who's aunt or mother throws this on for the kids to watch while the Turkey is cooking. I am convinced that these 10-star reviews are either bots or humans that have never seen another movie.

This "movie" makes me want to skip Thanksgiving indefinitely.

Every year, My husband, my Son, and I volunteer at a homeless shelter every Holiday. The banter between the actors while serving the food to the homeless was extremely distasteful, and outright Rude. They almost never made eye contact with the ones that were shown, Never a "Hi ! How about (whatever they were serving) Happy Holiday .. Nothing.

Acting was not great, story line was OK.

Agreed. I love Jon Heder. I would watch anything he was in.

I didn't find anything particularly "funny" about this movie. To start with, from the way people behave: Samantha's family invites her ex-boyfriend to spend the holidays with them and nobody told her. Then he tries to win her back after breaking up with her years ago, without much apologize or reasons for breaking up in the first place. Kids kick an adult, nobody reacts, no apologize either. And don't get me started on the big boyfriend's reveal at the end...

The actors are equally bad, except from the little girl maybe. There is absolutely zero chemistry between the leads, whether it is between Samantha with her boyfriend or her ex-boyfriend. Pass!

Maybe it gets better, but I turned it off 15 minutes in because the acting was SOOO bad. I love a good, clean, family-friendly movie, but can't watch movies that feel so unnaturally fake due to poor acting.
