I Give It Year Review. Here's Why You Should Give The Film A Chance

I GIVE IT A YEAR  Review By: MattInRC If you've been reading us for awhile, you know how much we love the unconventional. Sure, it's cool to see another Iron Man or relish in the world of Star Trek , but ultimately film exists to push to boundaries, regardless if audiences embrace it or not. The oddly rom-com I GIVE IT A YEAR might strike new ground, thriving in the atypical. Whether audiences will accept it depends on your outlook on marriage and love itself.

Their wedding is a dream come true, but no one — family, friends and even the minister who marries them — is convinced that they will last. Josh’s ex-girlfriend, Chloe ( Anna Faris ), and Nat’s handsome American client Guy ( Simon Baker ) could offer attractive alternatives.
