Crazy? Stupid? But not smart.

Jul 02, 2012 13:12

People said "Crazy, Stupid, Love." was smart.

I think it's less smart than self-aware.

It's self-aware of all the romantic-comedy conventions and plays them to a T, while sorta winking at you. But that's not the same as smart. Clever at times, yes. But not smart.

Atypical, yes, but atypical doesn't equal smart.

Complicated, yes, but that doesn't equal smart.

Farcical at times, yes, but that's still not smart.

Oh well.
