I just finally caught this at a lunchtime screening with just me and 2 others, but I can say all 3 of us laughed out loud although at different moments.
At times a typical Ricky Gervais comedy, at others a somewhat sad story of a woman whose husband has died, but really a charming comedy romance such as 4 Weddings but transported to New York.
Very enjoyable with some genuinely sad (tissues please) moments crunching through the jokes leaving a very "real" sense of someone having said the wrong thing.
I liked it a lot and I don't go for supernatural type films.
Tea Leone, who I remember as a far too thin generic young blonde in some sit-com as a photographer/journalist(?) has grown into an amazingly beautiful woman.
Funny how some people become themselves as they grow up.
So all in all a very well observed comedy of the absurdity of life and why dentists put that tampon type things in your mouth... ;-)
