Really Good!
This was a very pleasant surprise.
Great group of actors, all performing well. Kinnear is always good but really excelled this time. The writing was good and the story really kept our interest. Serious but with moments of humor. A very adult movie but, thank heavens, not spoiled by the inclusion of bedroom action or filthy dialogue. And no smoking either!

Watch if you like Greg Kinnear!
Despite it's dismal rating of 5.4 at the time of this writing, I watched the movie because I have been a fan of Greg Kinnear for a long time. About 20-25 minutes in, I almost shut it off....glad I didn't. What I thought would be a dark comedy turned out to be a kind of "feel-good" comedy with some important life truths...The grass isn't always greener, count your blessings, etc. Somewhat predictable at times, I was also caught pleasantly by surprise a few times, especially at the end. Phil also seems to be Greg Kinnear's directorial debut. Nice job Greg, I look forward to your future endeavors whether acting and/or directing.
Love Greg
Watch this movie totally cuz of Greg. It's not his top performance but it's nicely done. In terms of acting a mid life crisis man he did it good. Treasure the chance seeing these actors acted is the key point.
AWFUL
Quite literally one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I cannot believe I made myself sit through the entire thing. At least now I know what Purgatory is like...
Very good. Something different
Probably not good for people expecting holliwood traditional films. I enjoyed it too much
