A pre-wedding road trip tries to be engaging, but I found both male characters self-absorbed and boring. While it's possible that the attractive waitress/horticulture student (who has her stuff together) may really like Paul Giamatti’s character, and they may become friends, it seems more like a middle-aged man’s fantasy come true. He’s depressed; alcoholic; steals money from his own mother; can’t confront his sex-obsessed, soon-to-be-married friend; lies about his book publication; and has an ugly tantrum at a wine tasting because he doesn't get his own way. Unclear why this film received the plaudits it did.
