    A Real Pain

    ★★½

    Sort of nothing burger plot wise, but I can’t say I was bored during this. I think the script was killer, very realistic dialogue and characters. I also liked seeing Poland and all the historical sights.

     I get the point of the score being just Chopin, a polish composer, but it was kinda boring that being the only music for the entirety of the movie.

    Overall a nice time, but I would have a hard time recommending this movie to anyone because the lack of story here.

    The story wasn’t terrible, but the dialog and pacing was dog water. Felt like a series of random events happening with little connection. The brutally disappointing ending was the cherry on top of this shit sundae.

    Micheal Cera, Justin Long, Zack Galifianakis, Fred Willard, Steve Buscemi - all star cast of silly boys.

    When this started I thought it was going to be a classic boy meets girl coming of age story. Then it took a complete 180 and never looked back. Wild story and a great brand of humour.

    ★★★★

    Rewatched for the first time in awhile last night - absolute classic that holds up even better than I expected. Chockablock full of quotable lines and one of my favourite Will Ferrel characters. Such a unique and well executed concept.
