Crazy, Stupid, Love = 2 Thumps Up!

My girlfriend (the other member of the Wolfpack was working) and i went to see Crazy, Stupid, Love and i have to give it two thumps up.

It was funny, charming and spoke a lot of truth about love in all it's craziness and stupid moments but in the end, love conquers all, regardless of your age! 

Ryan Gosling was so charming (not like the Notebook but sexy white hot)! Steve Carrell as always hilarious.  Julianne Moore, wonderful and always acts her age with such appeal.  Marisa Tomei has comedic chops in this movie.  And my hollywood girl crush at the moment, Emma Stones.  She is like stinkin' talented and does it so effortlessly! Kevin Bacon always has a way of playing such bad nice guys!

I haven't been to a movie lately so this was a good way to ease back into summer movies! It may not win an oscar but the concept and ideas behind the movie is awesome.  Of course there were some parts that were questionable but oh well, it was true to life, i suppose.

Lessons from the movie:
1) Keep your marriage new and fresh (and sexy and hot all the time)
2) Everyone is capable of falling in love
3) It's alright to trust in love
4) We can all be crazy for love
5) Soul mates exists!
6) Ryan Gosling is sexy!

Do you believe in soul mates?

    These are some amazing casts. I adore Steve Carrell, and yes, Emma Stone is quickly becoming a favorite. She was pretty hilarious in "Easy A" a movie I didn't expect to like.

    Thanks for the recommend. Maybe an afternoon matinee with the girls today....

    I just read a glowing review in EW, but I probably would still see it just because of Ryan Gosling *swoon*

    I'm thinking this would have been a much better choice compared to The Change-Up! Thanks for the review!

    Do I believe in soul mates? Yes, I do believe there is someone for everyone. However, everyone doesn't meet their soul mate for various reasons. Life happens.
    I appreciate the tips from the movie.
    Thanks
