Sweet, funny and very well written.

I love when a movie takes an unlikely or unlooked person (one that might be taken advantage or discriminated their entire life), and shines a light onto them. One that still shows their flaws, but ultimately makes you really cheer for them. And for that, both Annette Bening and Bryan Cranston make a great leads together! They both have very good lines and are equally fleshed out.

The story itself seems to be based on real happenings. It also has a very interesting structure.. one that elevates the premise into a fleshed-out story that works well as a movie. I was beyond surprised, but the pastel colors and the joke on the trailer made it easy for me to give it a try. I would recommend that you do as well, if you'd like a competent (although slow) script, with lots of "feel-good" parts. I might even re-watch it one day.
