Very good movie to watch when you want a good unexpected laugh at the start it takes a bit to take in but it's to show a viewer of how hard life can get if a love one has had two life's without any notice, I don't want to spoil the movie but as a person who is very hard to make laugh I was so off taken at first but what a very good movie for a couple to hug up and have a few drinks, that's what type of mood you need to be in as it is genuine comedy
