Comedy, Romance
4 stars
Good movie. Steve Carrell becomes separated from his wife, Julianne Moore, and Ryan Gosling tutors him on how to pick up women. Emma Stone co-stars as Gosling’s love interest. It was really refreshing to see Gosling play a slick womanizer rather then his usual tormented, sad sack characters. I can’t help but compare this film to Friends With Benefits since both films highlight casual sex. Hands down, Benefits is the funnier film of the two, but Love has a more rounded-out story line with interesting characters and comical tangents, although the tone is more bittersweet, even somber at times, and I kept hoping the music would become more upbeat. Both are good movies, each with a different feel.
