The five year engagement

  • It looks like the romantic comedy thats all about denied instant-gratification hit a roadblock of its own this weekend, as Judd Apatows Five-Year Engagement seems like it will not win the weekend box office.
  • (Huffington Post)
  • The romantic comedy The Five-Year Engagement, starring Emily Blunt and Jason Segel, tackles the messy business of love in a time when commitment can be career-ending for one of the better halves.
  • (Los Angeles Times)
  • A lot of terrible romantic comedies come along in a given year, and after five or six you begin to question your belief in anything -- romance, comedy, movies, even terribleness itself.

  • In The Five-Year Engagement (out now), Jason Segel goes from being a successful and put-together chef in San Francisco to a burly, dirty bunny suit-wearing woodsman in Ann Arbor, Mich. and back again.

  • This week at the movies may be remembered by future generations as the weekend before The Avengers came out, but there are a few movies worth checking out this weekend, Sound of My Voice being the clear standout of the group.

  • Since topping Sarah Marshall was an impossibility, the onus was on Segel to write something different.
  • (Examiner)
  • It may take half a decade for the couple in The Five-Year Engagement to make it to the altar, but the romantic comedy will quickly outrun the competition to the top of the box office this weekend.
  • (Idaho Statesman)
  • Though there are a lot of new films out in American theaters this weekend, its hard to deny that the real box office story is happening overseas. The Avengers, open in many different territories across the world but not coming to the U.S.
  • (Cinema Blend)
  • Think Like a Man, the romantic comedy based on a book by Steve Harvey, beat out new release The Five-Year Engagement at the box office on Friday.
