With its movie references and psycho-babble,, Baumbach's follow-up to the highly acclaimed Kicking and Screaming is imitative of Woody Allen and Stillman, a slender, one-premise serio-comedy that's better scripted and acted than helmed.
Overlong, mediocre romantic comedy that barely even delivers on its premise.
A little coolly, but also sensibly, Baumbach would rather us open up and inspect his world than be swayed by it.
