Lack of good storyline.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This film was good, but it wasn't that good. The actual story of Amy Adams and her clean-up business was interesting, but every story surrounding that just felt half-baked and uninteresting. It should have been better.

Characters: 2 Adams, Blunt, and Arkin deliver good performances, allowing me to connect and care about what happensScreenplay: 1.5The plot is one the viewer has seen countless times, but it is cleaned up with a fresh citrus scent of decaying bodies. Cinematography: 1.5 Emotional:3.0 In contrast to the quirky happy title, I was pleasantly surprised with the relatable characters and somber yet positive tone of the film.Overall: 2.0

Is there, something that me, as a bloke, is missing here? It was directed by a woman. It was written by a woman. All the complimentary reviews on the box are from female publications. Perhaps the fact that while viewing it, feeling as bored and unfulfilled as I did, is down to an absence of estrogen in my system.I like to think not. I've seen plenty of so-called 'chick flicks' in my time which I've thoroughly enjoyed. Everything here though, from the one-armed love interest, to the disabled kid who's wiser than his peers, if straight out of screen writing classes 101. I've seen it all before, and done considerably better too.Worst still, nothing really happens. There's some half-baked nonsense about sisters coping with their mother's suicide and loser of a father, as well as extra marital affairs and taunts from old classmates. None of this adds up to anything interesting, and you just end up staring at the screen, while the stock characters and their tedious conversations wash over you.There is the germ of a good idea here. Who wouldn't want to see what cleaning up after a crime scene entails? These parts are the best in the movie, and witnessing the various fluids on the floor and our amateur Mrs Mops's reaction to them provides for a few sick laughs. But with the rest of the unoriginal tripe that's bundled along with it, make the movie impossible to recommend. 4/10

It ends too quickly... What happens with Winston? What happens with Nora? Another loose end was Nora's acquaintance that worked at the blood bank. It seemed like that relationship ended all too suddenly.It would have been nice to see Rose surpass her high school classmates, especially the classmates at the baby shower that appeared to look down on her after she told them she cleaned up biohazards. I like the fact that Rose was able to turn her life around. But after the disaster, she seemed to give up. I wish she would have persevered. But luckily Dad helped and it turns out that everything would be OK. And it seemed like the son turned out OK as well since he went to a new private school and seemed to be happy.
