I've seen a few of the so-called Mumblecore genre films (this one, Slacker, V/H/S, Breaking Upwards, Safety Not Guaranteed?/Tiny Furniture? they kind of qualify right?). I like them, kind of, although I feel as though I have to be in a pretty specific mood to seek them out. I really did enjoy this one, which is carried by the charisma of Jake Johnson, Olivia Wilde, and Anna Kendrick (Ron Livingston is also in the movie). I don't know that I'd go out of my way to watch it again, except maybe if I were feeling depressed or lonely as it does drop you into a social situation that is (at times) annoyingly realistic. So I probably will watch it again, is what I'm saying.
