  Great movie and 2 Disc set

  The title of the movie is five-year engagement and I think it took us almost that long to actually see this movie! Don't make the same mistake. If you like Jason Segal, Judd Apathow-type romantic comedies, or just looking for something light at times, deeper at times that deals with engagement, commitment and romance then you're not going to be disappointed. I Have not yet explore the extras on the disc which are always fun or the ultraviolet copy but it is nice to have it. It's also nice when you want to watch it over a friends or family members house that does not have a Blu-ray player, you can use the digital copy or ultraviolet sometimes and cast it up on their TV if they have a media player like Apple TV. Good, solid film about getting rooted and established, sacrifice and finding your way with the one you love, with God's love, and your family and friends.

  Romantic Dramedy

  A funny romantic dramedy that sometimes gets uncomfortable ultimately succeeds it due to a great cast and good writing. Like all Judd Apataw movies, it goes on a bit too long (it could have used 1 less flashback to the same scene), but the characters are engaging enough that want the best for them, even if at times they don't. A bit too real for a date night movie, it holds rewards for married couples or those in long term relationships.

  Different, but better than the trailer

  This movie surprised me, as it was different than the trailer presented it as. The trailer made it out to be a lighthearted romantic comedy, which it was at the start. What develops is a slightly darker, but truthful, look at relationships and the very real challenges couples face. The chemistry between Jason Segel and Emily Blunt is perfect for the roles and the side characters keep the movie light. The movie could have used some further cuts as scenes run too long, and sometimes the comedy feels forced, but overall I appreciated the fact that it went beyond rom-com cliches. This copy includes every format you could possibly want - blu-ray, DVD, Digital Copy, and UltraViolet download. It also includes more bonus features than the DVD, which was a plus for me.
