While We're Young (2015)

I had a great time with this movie -- probably because I kind of saw Gary and myself in the “older” characters. We, too, are a little out of step with our peers, though for different reasons than those in the film. I liked the way Josh and Cornelia (Stiller and Watts) were fine with the way things were but, once made aware of the fun their new, young friends were having, they were game to join in.

I wasn’t wild about the third act in which there's a revelation that puts the entire friendship in question. I think it would’ve been enough for the older couple to use the younger as a catalyst to revitalization...to have what seemed to be a mutually enjoyable friendship crumble actually made me rather sad.
