I Give It a Year (review)
A movie to make you hate romance, and romantic comedies, and people.

A movie to make you hate romance, and romantic comedies, and people.

It is so cute what this flick thinks is “dangerous” and “offensive”!
This is like the evil Mirror Universe version of Ted.
A taste of what you’re in for: Completely random “humorous” ethnic stereotyping. Crotch injury as comedic. The questioning of the masculinity of a man who is kind and gentle. Children’s toilet habits held up for ridicule.
What’s charming and fun here gets a little overwhelmed by too much grossout stuff.
When are “lovable” movie losers even more (allegedly) lovable? When they’re all foreign and arthousey, of course!
It’s the usual assemblage of grossout horrors provided for your alleged amusement. The freshly upsetting thing here is that this is a Nickelodeon production: you know, the cable network for kids…
If you don’t already think romance is dead, you will after this crude, obvious, juvenile, and desperately unfunny excuse for a wedding farce.
We need to be fixing global warming. And yet people who are probably pretty smart and consider themselves creative thinkers are spending their time on this.
There’s way too much crass and crude for this third outing in the series to do much beyond stoke juvenile disgust with human bodily functions…
