Literally, Right Before Aaron (2017)

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

There is something very human about this movie, and to prove it, we all felt sorry for Adam. And it was not because of the clichê of "seeing the perfect woman marrying the other guy"; but because Adam seems so lost in his life. His job, his love life, his friends, and even his family feel completely relatable, always telling what he should do or should have done, and we feel for him... Yes, this is a cringeworthy movie - but in the best way possible. His situation is cringeworthy, so why would the movie feel any different?We pitty him, we feel we all know some guy/girl who got too caught up on a former relationship, and it seems like Adam story is not new... because it is not. But this one was told in a loving way, showing glimpses of what Adam remembers (and idealizes) from the relationship, as they both try to be 'adults' in a very realistic way. The movie defines very well Adam in the beginning, showing why he acted as he did, and how lost he really is. This is not about her, 'the love of his life', this is about a man trying to navigate between labels in life, what you should do, or feel; and what everyone expects of you. So, I guess this is not the romantic comedy you were waiting. It's is not about the girl, the love or the confettis... It is about social norms and conventions, hopes and idealizations, and how a young man navigate between those.I really enjoyed it... ...But had to take out one point for Cobie's awful (fake?) bangs! (jk)

As far as indie lo-budget rom coms go it's pretty good. Justin Long is supremely watchable. Loads of great awkward moments. There's enough chemistry between the leads to make their past relationship seem plausible. It's not the best movie ever made but I was entertained.

What kind of a man attends the wedding of an ex-gf? What kind of an ex-gf, seemingly makes it an obligation to attend said wedding? This makes no sense to me in the real world. This is not only wrong but screams of an attention whore. I wonder why one would not only want to rub it in her exes face but also put her significant other in an uncomfortable spot.

I would say this is a real disaster movie, just to save you from wasting your previous 1.5h, the essence of movie is a grown up man who can't move on from his ex and being a dipshit jeoparding the very special day of his ex special day, and sobbing like baby wondering if he can ever be back with her, seriously!
