You want to see a film about a woman who graduates from college, immediately has her hopes absolutely ridiculously high up, thinking that she will be employed at her dream job right away and gets to move into an extremely fancy apartment? Who then, shockingly, has to face the cold hard facts of life, not getting a job even after many, many interviews, and is forced to move back to live with her parents? Who has a male friend that has always been there for her and that happens to also have been in love with her for a while now and has made that very clear, being a little bitter that she never loved him back? Who then meets a hot guy living next door, hooks up with him, and gets so caught up in him that she forgets a meeting with the boy who loves her, which makes the boy angry and blame her for not falling in love with him even though he has been waiting and waiting? Who then feels all guilty about it and has to watch the angry boy move away to New York, while she herself ends up getting her dream job after all and having everything getting sorted out in her life, but still feeling that something's wrong? Who then quits her dream job and moves to New York because, apparently, she IS in love with the angry boy after all? Who arrives at the angry boy's dorm, reporting all her deepest feelings to him in the doorway, and finally notices that there is another woman in the room, which, obviously, makes her turn away and run outside, bemused? Who then is stopped by the angry boy, who explains that the woman was his resident adviser? Who then kisses the angry boy and tells him that she loves him, and lives with him happily ever after?In case this is precisely what you're looking for, by all means - watch this film. Should be perfectly suitable for your needs.

The storyline is mainly about the sobering process of fresh College graduates, who face "the real life" for the first time.The lead female character finds out that sheer enthusiasm and confidence alone might not suffice in the attempt to secure a future one aspires to. The lead male character learns that a combination of avoiding difficult decisions and living in denial is hardly the wisest approach to leading one's life. Granted, those are hardly ground-breaking insights, but it may still be fun to watch the process of coming to terms with the reality that those insights refer to.Most of the other characters are there for the comic element.Finally, the acting is passable considering the limitations of the script and the light-hearted spirit of the movie.

Whoever thought this movie was a comedy is a total dumb ass. It is a complete DRAMA! There is nothing funny in this movie. It's basically a story about what every person goes through after graduating from college. Trying to find a job that seems nearly impossible with this screwed up economy and wasting your time by thinking you like somebody but your better off by yourself so it will be less depression and more enjoyment in life. The family was definitely weird which is normal these days except for the part where he was happy about belt buckles. The people in this one was actually similar to how it is in college. There always is someone that's a bitch and enjoys getting on your nerves more than anything. As well as others who are completely awkward in everything you can think of.

It's entertaining at first to watch what life is like after school. Just because you graduate from college doesn't mean you'll land a dream job, or any job at that, right away. So the main character finds the difficulties in life after college, OK I buy that. At the end she loses her boyfriend, but gets her dream job. That could happen I guess. After it's all said and done she quits her job to follow her boyfriend. At the age of 22, to throw your career/job away for a relationship is a horrible idea. If you're not happy by yourself what makes you think you'll end up being happy with someone else. Especially when you were together you weren't happy to begin with. For all the young seeking professionals out there, establish your life first! So she ran to New York to be with her boyfriend and quit her job. Doesn't she remember how hard it was to get the job in the first place?
