A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

So few good farces written nowdays, this one is REALLY good. I predict this will be good for years, too. Like you could watch it again even. Out of a possible ten I give it a twelve and I am going to remember the writers and directors so I can look for more.

There might be nothing original about it, even the title sounds a hundred years old, it´s a nostalgic movie alright but, although it might not be good enough to revitalize the romantic screwball comedy, it oddly feels like a breathe of fresh air among its contemporaries, paradoxically indeed. It does maintain a fast pace throughout, well, at least until right before the climax, and Peter Bogdanovich shows experienced skill, but the so-so script comes really together thanks to its outstanding cast. It´s seriously well put together, every single role is spot-on. It´s ultimately a film about acting and everyone is enjoying the ride in a contagious way. Just when I thought the cast was good enough there´s a cameo by Michael Shannon, and it´s not even the only surprising cameo, let´s leave it at that. The plot centers around Imogen Poots´character, the main reason I watched it in the first place, and I´m very happy about that. Light hearted and funny enough, there should be a big audience able to enjoy it without cynicism.

Most reviews on this film say that it's a nostalgic nod to the old Hollywood screwball comedies and it has a terrific cast. I'd like to weigh in with my 2 cents on these two aspects. Firstly, flicks where the characters constantly find themselves in the awkward embarrassing situations give me anxiety and an urge to look away. And She's Funny That Way has plenty of such situations, because you know, the film is about a run-of-the-mill call-girl who sleeps with the director, and is seen leaving his hotel room by an actor who's acting in the director's play and who was romantically involved with the director's wife, also an actress, and then, said wife comes to town, and the call-girl gets a role in their play, and... you get the idea. Yet all the characters bounce back from awkward encounters and disclosures with admirable ease, grace, and humor very rare in films. It's a truly funny, charming comedy with a zesty yet innocent premise and terrific actors. Everybody raves about the main cast, especially a do-gooder Owen Wilson and hysterical Jennifer Aniston, and I'd also like to give a shoutout to talented British actress Lucy Punch who has a small role of a Russian prostitute barely speaking English and whose comedic talent makes her few scenes one of the most hilarious ones in the movie. Bottomline, this comedy is a cinematic joy and we need more films like it.

I chose She's Funny That Way randomly in a rental store. It seemed like an easy, cute movie to watch. And I can't believe how much I actually love this! She's Funny That Way has that weird yet charming atmosphere mostly created by the music and the dialogue. It's what I'd want from certain director's who are popular but whose films are actually very boring to the common viewer. This film is hilarious because of the chaotic way everything just piles up and how many characters know each other and run into each other during the movie. She's Funny That Way is an excellent and charming comedy, which I warmly recommend to everyone.
