Crazy, Stupid Love

Crazy, Stupid Love was the first movie I ever saw by myself in a theatre.  I really loved the experience of sitting alone in a theatre with my popcorn and escaping into another world.  I thought this movie was pretty funny and heart warming.  The film is about a couple who separates after the wife cheats on her husband and the husbands journey into the beds of many women.  Steve Carell and Julianne Moore star in the film along with Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone.  I thought the plot line was interesting with a fun twist at the end.  The director made some interesting choices, such as the shot between Marissa Tomei's legs seen in the advertisements.  The scene where Carell is looking through the window at his wife calling him is so touching and the views through the window let the audience experience what carell's character must be feeling: a sense of disconnection from his family.  I enjoyed the overall mood of the film from the funny moments between Carell and Goslings characters to the more serious moments between Moore and Carell. The love triangle between the son, his babysitter, and her crush on the dad was hilarious to watch unfold.  The different story lines eventually came together in the end in a twist I did not see coming.  This is a movie I could watch over and over.
