'JULIET NAKED': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five)
A romcom based on Nick Hornby's 2009 novel (of the same name), about a love triangle involving an obsessed music fan, the musician he's infatuated with, and the fan's frustrated girlfriend. The film stars Rose Byrne, Ethan Hawke and Chris O'Dowd. It was directed by Jesse Peretz (who also helmed 2011's fantastic 'OUR IDIOT BROTHER'), and it was written by Evgenia Peretz, Jim Taylor and Tamara Jenkins. The film has gotten mostly positive reviews from critics, although the reviews aren't that spectacular. I felt the same way; it's a nice, sweet, cute movie (with decent performances), but it's not spectacular in any way. It's kind of forgettable ultimately, but I had a good enough time while I was watching it though.
