Weeknight Watchearly ratingWhy it’s a Weeknight Watch
With almost no lasting buzz and middling reviews (50% on Rotten Tomatoes), it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- One for anyone nostalgic for their awkward years and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young. A good follow-up to Carnal Knowledge or Dinner in America. Very British, in all the best ways.
- The mood
- Funny with heart, romantic.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 35 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated R: meant for adults.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Romantic-comedy about a college student obsessed with "Annie Hall" who is just shaking off his addiction when he meets the modern version of Annie herself.
