New Celeste and Jesse Forever movie list

New movie list Celeste and Jesse Forever Celeste (Rashida Jones) and Jesse (Andy Samberg) met in high school, married young and are growing apart. Now thirty, Celeste is the driven owner of her own media consulting firm, Jesse is once again unemployed and in no particular rush to do anything with his life. Celeste is convinced that divorcing Jesse is the right thing to do -- she is on her way up, he is on his way nowhere, and if they do it now instead of later, they can remain supportive friends. Jesse passively accepts this transition into friendship, even though he is still in love with her. As the reality of their separation sets in, Celeste slowly and painfully realizes she has been cavalier about their relationship, and her decision, which once seemed mature and progressive, now seems impulsive and selfish. But her timing with Jesse is less than fortuitous... -- (C) Sony Classics Release Date Celeste and Jesse Forever Aug 3, 2012 Limited

Review For Celeste and Jesse Forever
The give and take here feels completely real, and each character is likable while also flawed and vulnerable. Tom Long-Detroit News Skates by on being simply R-rated "adorable. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service Tries to blend chick flick staples with bro humor but never quite gets the mix right. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald It's supposed to exemplify witty, edgy, indie comedy. But "Celeste and Jesse Forever" turns out to be a formula movie ... John Anderson-Newsday Jones and co-star Andy Samberg are an agreeable pair, but nothing about Celeste or Jesse would make you want to spend an evening with them, much less eternity. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune How delightfully funny Jones is. Carrie Rickey-Philadelphia Inquirer Rashida Jones' first lead feature role is a likeable enough effort to step out from the tube... Aaron Yap-Flicks.co.nz [A] charming, lightweight comedy ... Philip French-Observer [UK] The film bears a kinship with the underrated 2006 film The Break-Up; both are, for lack of a better term, post-romantic comedies by exploring the largely virgin territory of what happens long after the meet-cute, when life takes hold and love goes sour. Jim Schembri-3AW The film shows its toothless nature when it refuses to properly eviscerate Emma Roberts's silly tweenie pop star. But there are worse crimes than being just a little bit too nice. Donald Clarke-Irish Times With its refusal to follow the usual romantic-comedy formula, this snappy and observant movie is a nice surprise. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com Aside from the premise of two people who can't seem to separate, the storyline is nearly non-existent. All in all, rather annoying. Alex Zane-Sun Online Charming and not without its moments, but far too conventional to capture the complexity it strives for. Michael Leader-Little White Lies There are some nice moments, but it's unbearably self-conscious and nowhere does it resemble real life. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] The leads are engaging enough but it's too inconsequential to make you care. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express There is quiet, seditious verve to the way expectations are derailed and then re-railed, just as in those areas of real life that still exist even outside the expanding Sundance empire of middlebrow observationalism. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times That title doesn't lie: the romantic comedy Celeste & Jesse Forever really does feel like Celeste and Jesse, forever. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph Engaging, sharply observed and refreshingly cliché-averse relationship comedy-drama with a strong script and superb central performances ... Matthew Turner-ViewLondon All the wry banter and gentle soul-searching in the world can't save the audience from drifting into apathy. Elliott Noble-Sky Movies A flawed but intriguing take on a well-worn genre. Rob Carnevale-The List This is an enjoyable and breezy enough watch thanks to its appealing lead duo. Simon Reynolds-Digital Spy There are some funny moments and some sharp lines but it's the chemistry between the two likeable leads that makes this so undeniably sweet. Andy Lea-Daily Star It's not a bad set-up, but the film lets everyone talk a lot without ever having much to say. Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman A low-fi indie that swiftly slums into terminal feyness. Guy Lodge-Empire Magazine A sassy and charming romantic comedy where the loosely scripted laughs play authentically and sometimes painfully. Cara Nash-FILMINK (Australia) Celeste and Jesse Forever overcomes many potential limitations because its characters are so richly drawn. Leigh Paatsch-Herald Sun (Australia)
