Simply Perfect

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Saw this wonderful movie on Netflix. Karen Gillan is brilliant & wonderful in this role. Jane's interactions with Benny left me with tears. Her ability to make you understand the complexities of the situation yet keeping the scene simple and flowing are why this Sheila is one of this Ages great actors. I will watch this movie again someday I am sure. Glascow, Scotland looks like Detroit, Michigan in some ways. Supporting cast did a decent job. A movie to see with one you love, especially a redhead. The movie gives insights to better understand em.

I think it is a real shame Not Another Happy Ending did not get released in New Zealand and that there are people out there who disliked the film. It is a good film. Okay, it's not a classic, not a great film, but it is still a good film. Karen Gillan is such a brilliant actress. So far, there hasn't been anything that I've seen her which she has not given a good performance. Rebus, Doctor Who, We'll Take Manhattan, Oculus, Guardians of the Galaxy, Bound For Greatness, Selfie and now Not Another Happy Ending. She has given nothing but good performances. Not Another Happy Ending is one of her best performances and she gave her best. I really don't blame Karen Gillan for being nervous for taking her clothes off on screen, but for what it's worth, she has a great body. Stanley Weber was a good choice to play the male lead Tom whom is an anti-hero. I thought the character was not likable and he was such a jerk. Good film. If you are fans of Karen Gillan and if you enjoyed Hotel Chevalier, Selfie, There's Something About Mary. I recommend this film.

10 things I hate about you … 1. the actress dresses like a wannabe indie school girl with a very limited wardrobe funded by the charity shop 2. the infuriating woman dressed as a 60s prostitute who does nothing to contribute to the film but sits in on every scene exposing her boobs 3. the character who appears initially handsome soon deteriorates, has multiple poorly paid jobs and eats chips in a monstrous fashion 4. the male protagonist cannot seem to decide his origin - have difficulty deciding if he is of Scottish, Indian or French descent due to his appalling acting 5. the background music sounds like its been composed by a Scottish 10 year old boy band 6. Willie is, number one - an awful name, and number 2 - old enough to be her dad 7. Our female protagonist is misleadingly skinny, consuming an abnormal quantity of cake - that of lemon drizzle, coconut and various cupcakes - however never gains weight 8. When romance finally sparks, our prostitute voyeur continues to watch as our hero consumes her face like one of her cakes 9. For some unknown reason our writer likes to sport the fashionable calculator watch 10. A tragic attempt at comedy at the end fails miserably when it appears our hero has keeled over from a tragic case of 3 minute pneumonia Good features include: the protagonist's hair

With Karen Gillan evoking echoes of Diane Keaton in Annie Hall and Glasgow's merchant city standing in for Manhatten, NAHE is a true Scottish rom-com. Gillan is funny, beautiful and displays a real gift for comic timing. Weber looks equally gorgeous and though his delivery is sometimes idiosyncratic, he looks so good, it doesn't matter a bit! There's a fine supporting cast too and a 'light as air' plot beautifully orchestrated by director David Mackay. The positive, life-affirming values of Scotland''s biggest, dirtiest, but conversely most romantic city are well deployed as a dramatic counterpoint. Delightful!
