If you find $5 on the floor, stoop and pick it up

Hi!

Maybe it's just that I wasn't an art film major in college.

But seriously, if you see $5 on the floor, stoop and pick it up.

If you find love, for heaven's sake, SAY YES, pick it up! Don't say no and then whine about it. Otherwise, I find it hard to identify with or support the protagonist, and if I can't do that, I just don't find a film engaging.

Way too many characters cried in the film, when love was right in front of them. I suppose that was the point of the film, that people get stuck in ruts.

I think that point is trite. This is the most confusing love film since "Chasing Amy", and even that had an upbeat ending.

And while I have your attention, did we really need the robots to make the film work? Was anyone besides me thrown for a loop by getting set up for a time travel movie (first 3 minutes of the film) and then... whaaa? Huh? :)
