At first, I really didn't like it and could not get past the annoying that is Ellen Page, but it actually won me over and earned its sweetness. It's completely indulges in that sense of humor, but I found it a little more nuanced and clever than a film like, say, Napoleon Dynamite. It's certainly a crowd-pleaser and has potential for a Dynamite, Little Miss Sunshine-type break-out, but ignoring the surrounding hype, I thought it was a breezy, likable, rapid-fire comedy that hit more than it missed.
Oh, and I hated Thank You For Smoking.
