Summary:
Tom Reilly (ZACH BRAFF) and his wife Sofia (Amanda Peet) are in for some major changes now that they have a newborn. As a lawyer, Sofia has always provided a comfortable living while Tom has contributed love, support and the occasional paycheck. When Sofia decides to be a stay-at-home mom all that changes.

Tom moves the family to Ohio to work for his father-in-law (CHARLES GRODIN) as an 'Assistant Associate Creative' for "Sunburst Communications." His boss Chip (JASON BATEMAN) happens to still carry a torch for Sofia from their high school days. Each time Tom gains some ground at the firm, Chip wheels in and steals his thunder. Dirty tricks and sabotage abound creating an atmosphere of fierce paranoia that eventually threatens Tom and Sofia's relationship.

Chip will stop at nothing to see Tom defeated while no one but Tom can see Chip for the evil genius he is. Through it all Tom's esteem is depleted, his manhood challenged (by a surprisingly large adversary) and he's watching his family slip away.

I tried looking for a thread on this movie, but couldn't find any. However if there is one, and I've by chance missed it, feel free to delete the thread mods smile.gif But if this is the first thread for it then, yay. lol.

So I just finished watching this movie last night. Thought it was hilarious. I love Zach Braff. I love pretty much every movie he's in and adore Scrubs. And Jason Bateman is amazing. I thought he was already fantastic in Arrested Development, but in this movie haha man you just can't help but hate him so much yet love him at the same time. Not so much a big fan of Amanda Peet, but I find her completely gorgeous.

I highly recommend this movie to those that are huge Zach Braff fans. But even if you aren't, I still recommend it.

Damnit, I want to see this but it hasn't come to my town. Stupid Spiderman and Pirates taking up all the screens.

It's not mainstream enough to go to the big theaters here. It's not indie enough to go to the arthouse theaters here. GRRR.

I mean, Jason Bateman in a wheelchair? COME ON!
There was nothing to fear,
and nothing to doubt.

For those who haven't seen this movie and/or can't see it cause its not available in your city or something, I've stumbled across a link that has the whole movie, for free, and the quality is a-freaking-mazing LOL

Just PM me if you want the link smile.gif I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post it here in the thread. So until I'm told otherwise, I think PM is the safest thing to do smile.gif
