I Give It A Year (2013) 7/10

Starring : Rose Byrne, Anna Faris, Rafe Spall, Simon Baker
Director : Dan Mazer
Running Time : 94 mins

Against the advice of their friends and family, Nat (Byrne) and Josh (Spall) get married after a seven month whirlwind romance, but as their one year anniversary looms on the horizon, the two start to wonder if they made the right choice, with Josh becoming attracted to his ex-girlfriend Chloe (Faris) who has shown back up on the scene, and Nat falling for her charismatic client Guy (Baker).

This romantic comedy is a pleasant antidote to the traditional rom-coms that have been knocking around for the last whoever knows how many years. The leads are likeable in their ability to annoy each other throughout the movie, and the non-Hollywood ending manages to still feel quite conventional. A great comedy for long-time couples to watch, but new couples should be wary – this could ruin everything!
