A gentle way to look at grief and depression

Melissa McCarthy, Chris ODowd and Kevin Kline are perfectly cast to add a touch of humor, and the acting chops to carry off the depth of what grief and depression can do to relationships. This is done without a lot of schmaltz or cliches, the blend of anger, sadness and helplessness are really well done, without preaching and with the hard edges softened with just enough humor to soften it, Is it the best movie ever? No? But I think this movie will resonate with those that have dealt with different aspects of heartbreak and depression. I think that's why there is such a wide range of ratings.

Original

My husband and I watched this movie tonight. It was very charming and fresh. It moved along swiftly. So sensitive with a touch of very dry humor. The performances by everyone were excellent.

A good example of a movie made by a good script.

I have no idea why movie critics trashed this. Movie critics are no longer relevant in my esteem. I think they are desperate to be relevant.
