An Ok Movie......
Oh, when we were young, did we accomplish everything we wanted, anything? This film brings a new perspective which almost makes it seem real.
Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts play a young couple in New York City. Their marriage seems secure, childless, they say they want it that way. Stiller's character has a documentary he has been working on for ten years, and I thus now 6 1/2 hours long, will it ever end. They strike up a relationship with a younger couple, played by Adam Driver and Amanda Seyfried. Driver's character is also a film maker, and he and Stiller become friends. These young friends are good for the couple, they feel freer and younger, until Driver's character shows his true self
The first time I watched this I didn't like it primarily because the four main characters were all so obnoxious. However, on my second viewing, I had a completely different take on it, as I think I didn't really "get it" the first time around. I usually enjoy Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts and this movie is no exception, as the movie kind of grew on me.

Weird...another good Stiller performance
Ben Stiller is good in this...which is odd. I'm so used to him being just ok and relying on comedy, but here he does some good acting. A story relatable for people of a certain age...but don't we all always want to be living the life we see others living?
