I thought this movie was over the top vapid. The character who played the brother in Never Been Kissed? Does not work as a British or English bred person. It just bothers me so much? Why can't Hollywood find some fresh meat? I was into the story until she slept with Drew Barrymore's' co-star. He is an actor who is always cast in play-time kid roles. He cannot portray a serious adult. Marker 101:43. No...just No. But the "Francis" look alike? (Christopher Masterson), was brilliant as the coffee friend barista. Very sexy. The writer must of gotten bored with their own story to have turned this way at the last 35 minutes of the movie. And the stalker from the Office? I think is who this older woman is? HILARIOUS. I like movies that are semi true to life? It makes the story more believable. There is always some PERSON standing in the way between a happy ending and the protagonist . That much is true. Now to finish the movie. Better have a happy ending! Muffin Top? Gross! I was talked into watching this movie.

This movie resonates with a woman of a certain age ending a relationship with a certain kind of man. This is such a relatable story. We all want love, but are we good enough? How much weight must we lose or hair removed or added to be worthy of adoration? Because clearly we are lacking something or we wouldn't be here....alone...with a muffin top. How does this happen? Enjoy the journey of well written characters stumbling through the mess that is real life...no photoshop here, not even Vaseline on the camera lens. Welcome to love, loss and laughter in the real world. This movie would go perfect with white wine and French bread or Twinkies...they are so under rated really. You could go for the expected muffin, but really why not make it a cupcake? Why do we not call that bit of extra love around our middles a cupcake? Who would mind that? It is all in how you look at it and skinny jeans are the demon seed that creates muffin tops. Now I am just filling space cause I need ten lines to make this an "official" review. Sorry for the rant at the end...just filling in the holes, which is another way we end up with muffin tops...but that is another movie...

"Muffin Top: A Love Story" is a a hilarious movie! I highly recommend watching it. Invite your girlfriends over to watch it too!I appreciated the story line about how we as women often feel we are never enough no matter what we look like or what we do.--It was absolutely refreshing to see a movie with real women having dialog about what real women often go through in regards to living in our society with all its stereotypes.Muffin Top is a laugh out loud movie that had me rooting for Suzanne as she navigates and fumbles through her personal life and relationships. It had me shaking my head thinking about my own life and what I had personally put myself through over the years before realizing "I am fine and I am enough just the way I am". Cathryn Michon is truly a Grrl Genius! I certainly hope Michon will continue to make more movies.

Finally, a movie that makes women and their insecurities funny, while spreading the message that we should love ourselves as we are. It is a rare Hollywood phenomenon to see women celebrated for their flaws. It is also rare to see a funny movie written and directed by a woman.There are so many fun moments that everyone can relate to. Men should see it just to climb into the mind of women and how they see themselves.Grab your muffin top, roll it between your fingers and love the hell out of it! We are all so much more than our bodies.Have a girls night and revel in all the hilarity. Celebrate yourself and all your womanly ways. Friends, dogs, and food make everything better!
