7/10
This was definitely weird

Warning: Spoilers
spoilers, and not only on this film. you've been warned.

This was a decent film, but it certainly had it's weird and frankly, badly written moments.

It's about a 28 year old matrass salesman, Brian. We know that he is 28, because his father had him when he was 52 and he's going to his father 80th birthday.

He then meets this girl, a daughter of a customer.

I really thought this was some book adaptation gone bad, because out of the blue, this girl wants to have sex with Brian.

Also, his attacker pulls a Tyler Durden on him, which is never explained.

It seems people are upset this is marketed as a rom-com. I mean, get over it, it's not the filmmakers responsibility to deal with marketing.

This is a good film, with great actors, some of which are under used, like Clarke Peters and Leven Rambin, although she's kinda overrated.

But the story has loose ends, and not in a good, open-ended kind of way.

7/10 The Melancholic Alcoholic.
