You want to see a film about a woman who graduates from college, immediately has her hopes absolutely ridiculously high up, thinking that she will be employed at her dream job right away and gets to move into an extremely fancy apartment? Who then, shockingly, has to face the cold hard facts of life, not getting a job even after many, many interviews, and is forced to move back to live with her parents? Who has a male friend that has always been there for her and that happens to also have been in love with her for a while now and has made that very clear, being a little bitter that she never loved him back? Who then meets a hot guy living next door, hooks up with him, and gets so caught up in him that she forgets a meeting with the boy who loves her, which makes the boy angry and blame her for not falling in love with him even though he has been waiting and waiting? Who then feels all guilty about it and has to watch the angry boy move away to New York, while she herself ends up getting her dream job after all and having everything getting sorted out in her life, but still feeling that something's wrong? Who then quits her dream job and moves to New York because, apparently, she IS in love with the angry boy after all? Who arrives at the angry boy's dorm, reporting all her deepest feelings to him in the doorway, and finally notices that there is another woman in the room, which, obviously, makes her turn away and run outside, bemused? Who then is stopped by the angry boy, who explains that the woman was his resident adviser? Who then kisses the angry boy and tells him that she loves him, and lives with him happily ever after?In case this is precisely what you're looking for, by all means - watch this film. Should be perfectly suitable for your needs.

I so wanted to like this film but I felt like I was watching two different movies, or I should say two different types of comedy. You have Alexis Bledel on one hand, who in my opinion, is better suited to a more sophisticated comedy (I mean, just watch any episode of Gilmore Girls and see how great she is) then you have Michael Keaton, Jane Lynch and Carol Burnett who are far more slapstick in their approach. Michael Keaton's acting and facial expressions tell me he still wishes he were doing Mr. Mom, not in itself a bad film, just wrong for this one. The only thing I liked was the fact that the script did not take the easy way out and she ended up with the right man. I watched this for Alexis, and will someone please write her a sophisticated screwball comedy so she can show what she can do?

This movie is fantastic, if you are a teenage girl... Which, I am not. So I found the movie to be rather dull and uninspiring. Sure there were aspects of the story that was good, but in overall, the movie just wasn't meant for me.Though labeled as a comedy, there is only a handful of funny moments throughout the entire movie. It is more of a romantic movie than it is a comedy. And throw in some aspects dealing with life, finding a job, mortality, family matters, and you have "Post Grad".The cast in "Post Grad" actually did a good job. Alexis Bledel (playing Ryden Malby) was very well cast for this particular role. However, the one carrying the movie and the one with the most comedy in the entire movie was Michael Keaton (playing Walter Malby). Jane Lynch (playing Carmella Malby) was also doing a good job with her role. Right up there with Michael Keaton was Carol Burnett (playing grandma Maureen), she was just hilarious and had a very unique character to portray.This movie should appeal to young girls fresh out of college, as the movie deals with that matter, having to find a job, and dealing with the love of your life. And in that manner, I think the movie did a good job (despite it not being up my alley).I sat down to watch the movie with the assumption that it was going to be an average teenage comedy, but it was far from it. The movie is not bad, not at all, it just wasn't intended for the likes of me.

It's entertaining at first to watch what life is like after school. Just because you graduate from college doesn't mean you'll land a dream job, or any job at that, right away. So the main character finds the difficulties in life after college, OK I buy that. At the end she loses her boyfriend, but gets her dream job. That could happen I guess. After it's all said and done she quits her job to follow her boyfriend. At the age of 22, to throw your career/job away for a relationship is a horrible idea. If you're not happy by yourself what makes you think you'll end up being happy with someone else. Especially when you were together you weren't happy to begin with. For all the young seeking professionals out there, establish your life first! So she ran to New York to be with her boyfriend and quit her job. Doesn't she remember how hard it was to get the job in the first place?
