The pull and push of the film is summed up in the Cat Flu thing. I enjoyed the nurse scene, with the cast member treating the kid exactly as you'd expect. The part where she breaks down about cat flu was funny and weird and unexpected and worked well. However when it came around in the end it made no sense, was beat to death in ok-we-get-it overly long sequence, and undermined the rest of the film.

This is a rare film, because I enjoyed it less than GD did. To be honest I think I couldn't let myself completely go because the whole "thinking with his dick" aspect totally put me off. I'm ok with that as a plot device but it was so endlessly repeated, allowing it to seem worse and worse. Perhaps once with a kid around, once from far away, once in a close encounter, once when you realize they're ridiculously young, and maybe even once more with them eating bananas, but they did it about twice as much as that. At least they made his wife every so slightly insufferable to counter balance a tiny bit.
