Trop belle

« De plus le récit, mince et avare en péripéties dignes de mention, est truffé de personnages secondaires stéréotypés, rarement drôles et souvent accessoires. »

« Primaire comme son intrigue et ces êtres unidimensionnels qui notent la valeur d'une personne sur une échelle de beauté allant de 1 à 10, She's Out of My League rappelle qu'il y a trop de titres qui prennent l'affiche toutes les semaines dans les salles de cinéma et que parfois, ce serait peut-être bon que quelqu'un fasse un tri. »

« Enfin, l'acteur montréalais doit se prêter à une série de gags de mauvais goût, qui n'ont même pas le mérite d'être drôles ou surprenants comme l'étaient ceux de l'infiniment supérieur There's Something About Mary, une inspiration évidente pour les créateurs de ce navet. »

« This is mostly due to the charm of Eve and Baruchel, playing the two normal people in a sea of wise-guy sidekicks, irritating family members, bitchy best friends and the rest of the menagerie that populates most of the modern coarse comedy. She's Out of My League looks like it's going in that direction, but this is a film that's an improvement on its trailer, another rarity. »

« Cela donne aux scènes et aux répliques que l'on imagine. Qui sont parfois vraiment bêtes (comme dans la vie) mais aussi, parfois, savoureuses. Pour qui ose rire bête, quoi. »

« She's Out of My League tries to live in the murky, grey realm between the raunchy stratosphere of Judd Apatow's movies and the cellar dweller, watered down formula romantic comedies usually populated by Grey's Anatomy leftovers. It succeeds in finding a level between those rom-com extremes, unfortunately that middle ground is as mediocre as you'd expect it to be. »

« If they'd perhaps shared an interest in anything, we might more easily buy this romance. But he's an awkward underachiever with low self-esteem and little ambition, and she's a worldly lawyer and event planner, brimming with confidence. The one believable aspect is his neurotic nagging sense that he's not worthy, and the effect that has on their relationship. »

« What he brings to She's Out of My League, in addition to the geek and the gawk, is a dash of the debonair, which might seem impossible and yet he does. The character also goes for polite over pot as a central reason for his schlubian state, a quality so rare in these modern times that it seems like an entirely new concept. What's next, no more knuckle-dragging friends? »

« Baruchel, a member of the Knocked Up/Tropic Thunder repertory company, is a charmer, his Kirk a self-effacing, modest, socially high-functioning guy of limited charisma but sweet disposition. And though she might have gotten away with being just a pretty face, Eve brings a genuineness to Molly that's refreshing, especially in a genre that usually treats young women like chuck roast. »
