They Came Together

We laughed all the way through this. Not a spoof, per se, of any particular rom-coms, but more like a satire of the genre in general, picking on the well-worn tropes. Amy Poehler and Paul Rudd are in top form and so is the support cast. It’s too bad David Wain and company don’t have a bigger following and this didn’t get a bigger release. It’s so much funnier than those lame/obvious Date Movie things. It’s back to the old-school Zucker Brothers/Mel Brooks style of comedy and it’s a fun night at the movies.
