More sad than funny
Is she supposed to be autistic? Are we supposed to laugh at her? That's the big problem with this movie. She's unbearable, and sad. Most of it is humiliating.
Mary Horowitz (Sandra Bullock) creates crossword puzzles for the Sacramento Herald. She's an eccentric mess unable to connect with other people. She's set up with TV news cameraman Steve (Bradley Cooper) by her parents. While she falls head over heels for her, he can't run away fast enough as he's call to the next news story. She chases him all across the country.
The last section does have a little bit of fun. She finally does a few things right. But it's way too late to save this movie. It's really sad to see Sandra Bullock flail away for so few laughs.
