3.0*/5.0*
People Places Things poster

A very basic mix of drama, comedy and romance. It's a typical dramedy, a niche that's currently eclipsing most other types of comedy. Director Strouse sticks a bit too closely to the genre conventions and should be grateful that he could rely on Jemaine Clement to raise the quality of the film.

Clement is by far the best thing about this film. His timing is what makes the comedy work. The rest of the cast is decent, but not that remarkable. The same can be said about the drama and the romance too, which is all a bit perfunctory. Decent filler in other words, especially when you're looking for something light, just don't expect a full-blown comedy.
