“An almost perfect 90-minute hit of confident and inspired comedic commentary.”~Catherine Shoard, The Guardian

Aroview: Ben Stiller plays a documentarian whose career and marriage are overturned when a much younger couple enters their social circle in this film-centric culture comedy from finger-on-the-pulse New Yorker, Noah Baumbach.

Yes, it's Woody Allen-lite, and padded by a few contrivances, but it's pleasingly accessible, and is mounted on a strong satirical premise concerning documentary film-making integrity in the era of social media.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) Very surprised that this was selected for the NZFF - its very light material and hardly worth the film stock - Naomi is fine as usual but Stiller struggles. ~Tubbs
