Slow, awkward pacing and promotes animal cruelty

Zooey is one of the few positive things about the film. She did a nice job with the one-dimensional part that was written for her.

The film's pacing seemed a bit off and some scenes were tedious. An emotional attachment for the protagonist and rooting for her success never seemed to get off the ground before Reese proved she was not worthy of such an emotional connection.

I probably could have forced myself to stay with it a little longer but the gratuitous drowning of the kitten pretty much wrapped it for me. After that, I could have cared less if a bus ran over Reese.

I'm thinking that this is just a great message to send to the witless wonders of the world that it's okay to toss a kitten into the river instead of taking it to a shelter or veterinarian to have it humanely euthanized.

The more I think about it the more I dislike the movie.

Hopefully, one day Rapp will mature and comprehend how much film influences the masses and choose not to promote animal cruelty.
