Crazy, Stupid, Love (1:57) 2011

Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) has been married for twenty five years when his wife announces she wants a divorce because "they stopped being us". Cal moves out, and spends time alone at a local bar.  Jacob, a handsome womanizer, takes Cal under his wing and reinvents him with a new hairstyle, new clothes and coaching. Cal has a young adolescent son who is having trouble with his love life, Robbie is in love with his seventeen year old babysitter. Unfortunately for Robbie, Jessica has a crush on his father. As all this romantic turmoil is hitting the Weaver family, Cal has met a girl, a young law student graduate,  with whom he is very attracted. Of course, Hannah repels his advances. I'm happy to report that this a very enjoyable romantic comedy. The Weavers are a likable family who care and love each other. Like all families, they have their struggles individually and as a family unit. While most of the movie is lighthearted, it does have a serious and touching, heartwarming ending. I highly recommend this romantic comedy
