Source: IMDB

Ratings: 6.6/10

Synopsis: Management chronicles the chance meeting of Mike Cranshaw (Zahn) and Sue Claussen (Aniston) when she checks into the roadside motel owned by Mike's parents in Arizona. A bottle of wine 'compliments of management' jump-starts the cross-country journey and unique courtship between two different kinds of people who are both ultimately looking for the same thing - a sense of happiness. Mike sees something special in button-downed Sue that inspires him to take a chance and hit the road to go after her. But once he reaches Maryland, he finds that Sue has no place for an aimless dreamer in her carefully ordered life. Obsessed with making a difference in the world, Sue falls back in with her punk-turned-Yoghurt mogul ex-boyfriend Jango (Harrelson), who promises her a chance to head his charity operations. But having finally found something worth fighting for, Mike puts his hopes against her practicality, and the two embark on a twisted, bumpy, ultimately freeing journey to discover that their place in the world just might be together.

My Bites: One of the better dvdrip quality movie that I've downloaded lately, the movie gives me a Juno-type feel of somewhat heartwarming and inspiring, about what a wacky average joe would do to pursue the girl of his dreams. including parachuting right into the pool of her house. And it was also about how a girl would sometimes forego the ideals of love in return for financial security and stability. Jennifer Aniston is in it, starring as the main love interest, i used to love her from Friends sitcom, her acting here is quite good too, though she’s showing signs of aging, quite gracefully albeit. Steve Zahn’s acting is worth a mention too, very convincing as the wacky average joe. Good story and good acting makes this movie worth your time. ;-)
