A little crazy, but far from stupid, Crazy, Stupid, Love. is a funny, sweet romantic-comedy that just seems to work somehow. I think the cast might be the cause of this, with exceptional performances given by all major players. Now, where was I? Oh yeah, the story: it starts off when Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) learns his wife Emily (Julianne Moore) has been cheating on him with her coworker, David Lindhagen (Kevin Bacon). Having only been with one woman his entire life, Weaver is clueless as to how to find love again in his middle age. Successful womanizer Jacob Palmer (Ryan Gosling) sets out to change this, helping Cal become confident enough to take women to bed. Still, Cal can't seem to stop loving Emily, and it looks like she may still be in love with him.
Perfect for men and women alike, Crazy, Stupid, Love. will find a way into your heart (unless you're some sort of a weird, heartless douchebag. Then you won't like it).
