Film:  The Five Year Engagement

Not a bad movie.  Overly long.  Very down the middle.  But a serviceable romantic comedy with fun characters.  I laughed quite a bit once the movie got going.  No reason for the movie to be 2 hours, especially because you know exactly what's going to happen the entire time.  But still, enjoyable on a weeknight.

UPDATE:  What is it with the depiction of Asian women in comedy these days?  In nearly every comedy series or movie dealing with romantic stuff, it feels like there is a "bad" older male character who has a much younger Asian wife or some other Asian-female-as-threat-to-white female character.  The comedy/joke is always the same -- the Asian girl is a prop joke -- someone hanging on the arm of some irresponsible older man -- always a sign of weakness in the male character and the Asian girl is given no personality at all.  Off the top of my head:  30 Rock, Girls, Parks and Rec, Five Year Engagement, Pitch Perfect, all using the same, basically racist joke.  Strange.  Lazy.
