Enough Said is a romantic comedy about hurting the people you love, who you want to love - and making mistakes that may be impossible to recover from.
In the terse space film provides, Holofcener capturing her characters deftly. We know their fears, needs, lonesomeness. We trust the cars they drive, the food they eat, the rooms they keep tidy, or not.
The easy chemistry between Louis-Dreyfus and Gandolfini is wonderfully charming - you're rooting for them even as the falsehoods pile up and the poison begins to flow.
The jarring shifts between effective drama and failed humor make watching Enough Said a bumpy and sometimes frustrating journey.
For all of us who've been waiting way too long for a smart, funny, snappy romantic comedy for grown-ups - here it is.
Holofcener delivers her most confident character comedy to date - a work of deceptively informal mastery - and Gandolfini's gentle performance just about breaks your heart.
"Enough Said" demonstrates that adult storytelling is not dead.
A romantic comedy for grown-ups.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus...is such a revelation that it feels like we're watching her talents unfold for the very first time.
Consistently entertaining and funny (without ever being hysterically so) -- and, yes, I'd recommend it as a very nice way to spend 90 minutes at the movies.
Holofcener's script is truthful & very funny, while the leads deliver their lines with the sort of exemplary comic timing that comes from years of finely honed experience. Refreshing & breezy - but also forgotten almost as soon as it has wafted by.
An insightful, wryly amusing social commentary about compatibility and contemporary suburban anxiety.
The ads say 'at last a movie for adults' and this time the advertising is not lying. A wonderful grown up movie. Gandolfini and Louis Dreyfus are terrific together.
A touching romantic comedy that doesn't take the easy way out.
The plot ultimately is just a hanger on which to place Holofcener's typically engaging dialogue, a roomful of gracefully constructed characters, and a superlative turn by the late James Gandolfini.
Then James Gandolfini walks into the picture, and things settle down into a fine, genuine groove.
It's not just a thoroughly enjoyable movie that benefits from a funny, well-humored script, but it's a lovely way to remember the late, great James Gandolfini.
Simple, quiet, unassuming, but with loads of warmth and heart.
Holofcener has an instinct for the ensemble, and there are a wealth of interesting characters in the margin.
A comedy of separation anxiety and conjoining anxiety...When Holofcener gets Dreyfus and Gandolfini alone, Enough Said is a beautiful thing.
Eva is in turn lovable and loathsome, but thanks to a delicate blend of comic lightness and everyday drama, Louis-Dreyfus's performance lands in just the right place to meet Gandolfini's sparkling yet solid gaze.
What a concept -- an adult romantic comedy that's equally wise and playful, with mold-breaking performances by James Gandolfini and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
It's a funny, tender, impactful story of two divorc?es, authentically in their early 50s, struggling to trust and love again.
The result is one of the most honest recent comedies about romances that flourish, marriages that totter and the difficulties of raising children with the right blend of respect, discipline and support.
