Description

In Rebecca Miller's witty romantic comedy, Maggie (Greta Gerwig) is a vibrant New Yorker, who without success in finding love, decides to have a child on her own. But when she meets John Harding (Ethan Hawke), an anthropology professor and struggling novelist, she falls in love for the first time. Complicating matters, John is in an unhappy marriage with Georgette (Julianne Moore), an ambitious academic who is driven by her work. With some help from Maggie's eccentric best friends, married couple Tony (Bill Hader) and Felicia (Maya Rudolph), Maggie sets in motion a new plan that intertwines their lives and connects them in surprising and humorous ways.

    I kept waiting for it to entertain me … eventually I just turned it off

  • Not a "comedy"...more a slice of life

    What a relief to hear intelligent adults discussing life, creative pursuits, family, relationships... and working through messy co (inter) dependencies. Not a horror movie, Not a comedy. A wonderful slice of LIFE!

  • Fantastic

    LOVED this film, didn't want it to end. It reminds you of the best of Woody Allen films, when he was back in his prime. Witty vocabulary, quicky plotting, interesting characters, but doesn't take itself too seriously. So good.

  • Rotten tomato gone wrong

    The movie is not as bad as negative reviews, but it is NOT a comedy. ITunes is really misleading viewers. It is a fake intellectual story of transitions in life, from one phase to another. One thing I do agree, rotten tomatos are always totally off. This is not a romantic comedy of any sort!

  • Chasing Maggie

    I guess if you like a story full of narcissistic losers, you might like this movie. Just imagine if the makers of the sexually idiotic movie Chasing Amy decided to do their best rip off of Woody Allen's style of story-telling. It's very hard to care very much about stupid characters who make stupid mistakes over and over and over again. This movie is pointless.

  • Self-absorbed pap!

    I wish I had read these reviews instead of trusting RT. I've seen some dull indie movies in my time but this was one of the few movies in my lifetime I couldn't even make it through.

  • No!

    It's like an extension of Frances Ha. If you liked that movie, then you'll like this. If that movie bored you, this will too. It took forever to get going to the ultimate "plan". every actually funny moment was in the trailer. The ex-wife (I forget her name) was performing a funny character, but it wasn't enough to bring up the tone of the movie to actual comedy. Meh.

  • PAINFUL
