Our take by Bilal Zouheir

Topher Grace puts on a great show in this witty yet sadly underrated movie. Really the whole crew is casted extremely well. The story is very warm, smart, and thoughtful. It is only a bonus that it is genuinely funny and realistically romantic. It strikes the right balance between the grit of the real world and the lightness of love.

What happens

Dan Foreman is a seasoned advertisement sales executive at a high-ranking publication when a corporate takeover results in him being placed under naive supervisor Carter Duryea, who is half his age. Matters are made worse when Dan's new supervisor becomes romantically involved with his daughter an 18 year-old college student Alex.
