@ the Movies 2012 - The Five-Year Engagement

This is a hard film to review, The Five-Year Engagement has good points and bad points and the first bad point is the running time.  It is way too long and some scenes are so drawn out it is less than funny.

Emily Blunt is a dream and I really love her.  Jason Segel is just not attractive and in this film he borders on creepy and homeless all in the same scenes.

All I can say also about the cast is poor Jacki Weaver just looks out of place and so do some of the other support cast.

This is no Bridesmaids or the Hangover, yes it has funny parts especially when the word vagina is used, gosh it's a funny word, why no one knows.

Why is this film so up and down, I think it all comes down to the run time and if the editing was tighter it might bring the laugh out loud moments closer together making it more of a comedy.  It is more of a comedy with the occasional Nurse Jackie style laugh.

Okay so time for a review and the score, 3 stars mainly for Emily Blunt.
