Awkward.....

In a word: awkward.Why on earth did I watch this film? I like Zach Gilford, and his performance was pretty good for the most part. But the movie itself? I can't really say anything good about it. Chunks of action/dialogue seemed to be missing, and some of the performances felt a little off.The only thing I commend is, bizarrely, the DVD extras. They have some awesome career advice from experts like Marcus Buckingham, and other fun bits that felt like a breath of fresh air (especially to those who recently graduated) So, skip the film, but watch for the special features. It'll save you time, and you might learn a thing or two.6/10

Not a terrible film, but you can do much better

Ryden (Alexis Bledel) is a new college graduate. She plans to work at a huge firm, but doesn't get the job. Now she is forced to move into her old house with her eccentric family. She has her wacky mom, Carmella (Jane Lynch), her caring dad, Walter (Michael Keaton), her best friend, Adam (Zach Gilford), and her brother, Hunter (Bobby Coleman). She has to balance moving back into the nest while trying to find a decent job. Bledel has a certain charm, a certain spark in her, but she is stuck with a character you simply can't like. She doesn't like Adam dating anyone, but she refuses to date Adam. All she has to do is find a decent job, but ends up complaining when she takes a horrible job. The whole cast, including Lynch, Keaton, Coleman, and Gilford are all so good, and I've seen them be good in other stuff. They all are pretty good here, but also have characters you are forced to not like. It's just a mess of a film with a certain charm, a certain spark of light to it. Unfortunately, you can't connect with these characters, and you do not care what happens to any of these characters. This makes this a movie that's not terrible, but you can do better, so don't kick yourself if you never see this movie.
