When I originally saw the trailer for this movie, I thought it would be a comedy. I suppose also because of the actors that are in it, John C. Reilly, Marissa Tomei, Jonah Hill, Catherine Keener.
This movie was more of a drama to me, a divorced man who cannot get over his ex, whom he still works with and is very close friends with, meets the woman of his dreams. She is torn between her relationship with him and the relationship she has with her son as a single mother. The son sees no place for this new man in he and his mothers life and tries everything he can to break up their relationship. People may see the relationship between the mother and son as "creepy" or "weird" and obviously it is over exaggerated in the movie, but this "love triangle" can be very true in real life. I really feel for all three characters. I think this is a great movie to watch when you are relaxing on a Sunday.
