The Art of Getting By

He said:  I love these kinds of movies.  It's about young people struggling to find the meaning of their lives.  It stars Emma Roberts who is one of my favorite young actresses and whom I predict will have a long and successful career in movies.  Well written and excellent New York scenery.  The title is a metaphor for life.  Grade:  B+

She said:  At first, I had mixed feelings about this movie.  I expected it to be your average teenage movie.  But, I was pleasantly surprised.  I thought the acting was good and the story line was too.  The main character-boy-struggles with the meaning of life.  And, I think most of us do at some point.  It is a love story and a life story.  There was some bad language (1 F-bomb), but overall I thought this was a good movie.  Cute, charming, a little depressing, and refreshingly poignant when it comes to trying to figure out life.
