Crazy, Stupid, Love 2011

Crazy, Stupid, Love. (2011)    Instead of ordering off the restaurant menu, Cal's wife asks him for a divorce.  Cal gets instructions from Jacob how to drop his sad-sack persona and become a master of the modern dating scene.  He's brought back from the brink of drinking his nights away at a local pub with no hope.  He develops a distinct sense of style that sets him apart from the pack but he feels like something is missing from his life.
    This is good and funny.  Cal's son has a big crush on his babysitter, the babysitter has a crush on Cal.  Everyone hates the wife's boyfriend because he's the one who started this.  Even though Jacob always gets the girl, he's alone.  4* (I really liked this movie)

118 min, Comedy directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa with Steve Carell,
Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore, Emma Stone, Analeigh Tipton, Jonah Bobo, Kevin Bacon.

Note:  Blockbuster 4*, imdb 7.6 out of 10, 78% critic 82% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
