Review: Something’s Gotta Give

Starting off with fast dialogue, that seems a bit contrived, the jokes and funny bits are nicely spaced between each other. Later on, the dialogue feels more natural. The first half will keep both corners of your mouth pointed upwards, although the story is quite predictable. Acted fairly standardly, there’s nothing suprising here to be found from either Jack Nickolson or Diane Keaton. Then comes the second half, a bit long winded. And the fourth quarter is nearing… slowly. By now, time has almost stopped, with only the law of linearity keeping it going. It keeps going on and on and on with no jokes, only cliches. It ironically becomes what it was meant for. Old nagging grannies. So, basically, here are the points earned for the first half. 6+.
