Crazy Stupid Love Review

Crazy Stupid Love…. huh, this was an interesting movie.
Not because it was good. But because it wasn’t that good, yet I still liked it.
Weird.
Why did I think it wasn’t that good of a movie? Well, I guess it’s a matter of what you like and what you don’t like, but I thought that some scenes were just plain creepy, and that sorta bothered me.
But that doesn’t mean it won’t bother you! My sister loved the movie. I didn’t.
so, the scenes that creeped  me out:
Every scene with the babysitter
Almost every scene with the son
Let me explain: you first see the son, um, you know lets not get into what you first see the son doing (or you know, NOT see, this is only PG-13 after all). but whatever, even though I am grossed out, I don’t let that bog me down. Then you learn the 17 year old babysitter is in love with Cal, Steve Carell’s character, who is a 40-something man. and I’m all like, “Okkkkkkkkkkkkaaaaaaaaayyyy” but I’m not too bothered, after all it is only the beginning of the movie.
Then it starts getting to the good part. the minute that Ryan Gosling steps onto the screen I started liking the movie. You know, I didn’t really like him in The Notebook, (but wait! before you crazy females start attacking me let me explain myself. I’m all for guys that have beards, I like beard [I feel like Ke$ha now, uhg] he just doesn’t look good in full grown facial hair. He looks good in a shorter, trimmer beard, like in this movie, just not Santa type whiskers. okay, you can start attacking me now, just as long as there are no flame throwers involved) but in this movie, Gosling really stands out. He made ME, (Who is waiting for marriage before I have sex, I might add) want to go home with him, he totally had moves that you could see why girls fell for his one night standness (That’s not a word, but whatevers)
and it is sort of funny, and you are kind of laughing. but its not enough to make me burst out in giggles, like some movies make me do.
Then the creepy babysitter takes some naked pictures to give to Cal, and I’m like, “Oooooooookkkkkkkkkaaaaaayyyyyyy,”
Then it starts to get SO FUNNY THAT I AM LAUGHING RIGHT NOW AS I TYPE THIS (I needed to put it all in caps to show how funny it was)
I won’t tell you why it was so funny, mostly because I’m evil that way, but also I want you to enjoy the movie and the only truly funny part of the movie.
And it is approaching the end of the movie and I really started to like this it and I am smiling and I am glad at the turn of events and yatta yatta yatta, when…
The ending was ruined by the creepy babysitter.
She gives the 13 year old boy her naked pictures that she had intended to give to Cal.
And at this point I am totally grossed out. That left a bad taste in my mouth, but it other then that, it was a pretty okay movie. So I didn’t really enjoy this movie, but I’m sure some of you insane females will love this movie. All I ask is that you don’t attack me with flame throwers. But nun chucks are okay (I’ve been learning how to fight off nun chucks)
My grade: 81
Everyone else’s grade: 89-10001 (Those crazy insane females)
Rated: PG-13
