My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

She's Out of My League (2010)

Jay Baruchel makes a fortune playing skinny lovable losers.  Here his character finds himself dating an intelligent, sexy blond with a nice personality and a stable job.  Most of the film is funny and it has a simple moral that most people will agree is truthful.  The entire ensemble does a nice job with the material, even when the jokes fall flat or the story loses some of its momentum.  I especially enjoyed watching T.J. Miller and  Krystin Ritter.  My only major complaint is that it ends in satisfying but not especially clever climax.  Grade: B+
