STORYLINE: For Mags and Ash, marriage has become a series of arguments and compromises, leaving them both yearning for more. On their first vacation alone since becoming parents, their arguments threaten to ruin the trip-until they meet Angela, a free-spirited digital nomad who stirs unexpected feelings in Mags and gives her permission to be a version of herself she has not been in years, fun. Intrigued by Angela, the couple flirts with the idea of a threesome, but it’s never as simple as it seems. (IMDb)
I tend to like my comedies more on the silly side of things. Mel Brooks really appeals to me as does movies like Airplane (1980), My Cousin Vinny (1992), and MRe Myself and Irene (2000). Romantic comedies rarely do the trick for me. 2912’s Silver Linings Playbook was one of those rare exceptions. I went to see You, Me, & Her more because I could then anything.
The film is more a sex comedy then a rom com. This is on the grand trading of much better films The Girl Next Door (2004), Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008), and The Wedding Crashers (2005).
You, Me, & Her misses the mark for me from the start because I did not care for the characters. I am dropped into their lives abd problems with no backstory of how we got there. Then for what is suppose to be a comedy ends up neons more of a drama with bits of comedy attempted that are sprinkled through out.
This is a full film that I found unstimulating.
Until next time I will see you at the movies
