This didn't know what it wanted to be so constantly went for shock value. In the process of figuring out where it wanted to go, a stellar cast was wasted. The opening scene tried hard for a cheap laugh which pretty much set the tone for the rest of the movie. I kept waiting for the meet cute scene when the two leads would connect. The wait was excruciating as was the dialog. I stuck with it though since it doesn't matter what Bill Duke says, he has my undivided attention. Unfortunately, the more lines Tambor had, the less interesting and likable he became to me. The whole dream sequence was funny but I thought his reaction to it and the subsequent scenes were absolutely absurd. It would of been more tolerable for me and easier to suspend my disbelief if his interactions with strangers were not so negative and devoid of humor; this ugliness pervaded the entire movie. I had high hopes after Tambor's first date with Clayburgh because there was some kind of magic in that encounter. Then the movie seemed to stall again and led to more negative encounters. I stopped caring at that point and shut it off.
