I love this movie! It's like Sideways crossed with Wedding Crashers and sprinkled with a dash of AWESOME. And it gets better every time you watch it, which is the sign of a truly great movie!!! My girlfriend and I rented it on vacation in Greece (where it came out earlier on DVD) and couldn't stop talking about it. And now its thankfully available in the states.
Fred Savage is Giamatti, only younger and with twice the issues. Its his best acting job yet because he's more that just a vulnerable little spud. He brings out the many sides of someone going through a (early) mid life crisis, making it not just a fun comedy. The themes reach deep! It's a cautionary dating tale for the modern age, which is why, as I stated above, it just may be the ultimate break up movie.
One last thought... I hope they come out with a "The Last Run" calendar!!! You'll understand why after you've seen the movie...
