5 Year Engagement was...nice.

I had a hard time coming up with a quirky word to describe this movie... "nice" is all that came to mind. It was a cute story and the fact that Jason Segal wrote it took out the super cheezy nonsense that can ruin these kind of movies.  It had realistic moments but honestly dragged on way too long.  I felt like it was taking 5 years to get the point across!  A romantic comedy should never be 2 hours!  However, their chemistry was good and I liked Emily Blunt in a leading role.  Jason Segal is super cute...you always want to root for him.  They used quite a few "F" bombs that I think were unnecessary, but they had a cute banter with one another.  The only thing I couldn't sink my teeth into was him giving up his career for her...a bit unrealistic in today's world.  The last 30 minutes were probably the cutest part of the movie...all I have to say is "Cookie Monster and Elmo Talk."  Should you see it? Definitely worth a girls night out and/or rental!
