Keeping it Real
3 April 2007
You could describe this movie as a romantic comedy. And I do agree with one of the previous reviewers, the romantic part isn't sappy and the comedic part isn't slapstick either. It has the right balance to it! And as an absurd plot progresses (you have to watch this), and by absurd I mean more like abstruse or something like that, the (main) characters remain down to earth. The actors are well casted and carry the plot, while playing it "straight" (not everyone is playing "straight", as you will see if you watch the picture, but that's something you'll realise the first minutes into the film).

I haven't watched the film for quite some time now, but if you like a real (offbeat) comedy, than this is for you! :o) It's a great movie and a testament how great a director Ang Lee is!
