James L. Brooks’s new film feels like it was written by an extraterrestrial being who has consumed too much media from the 1990s and 2000s and attempts to re-create how the human species behaves.
An earnest, though innocuous, feel-good movie for the armchair traveler.
If you are a fan of gritty 1990s indie film and have a taste for screwball comedy and eccentric Coen-esque characters, then Bunny is for you.
Essentially a portrait of male insecurity, with two men clueless about how to handle the women in their lives.
Much of this coming-of-ager is so convincingly awkward that I kept needing to hide my face in embarrassment.
A black comedy that is neither dark enough nor funny enough.
The romantic, sweet-natured film has the feel of cringe comedy, but only on the surface.
