Python Hyena Going the Distance (2010): Nanette Burstein / Cast: Drew Barrymore, Justin Long, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, Christina Applegate: Total snore fest with absolutely no entertainment whatsoever. It regards long distant relationships and stars two talented actors playing two total morons. Justin Long and Drew Barrymore meet and fall in love playing the arcade games. From there they romance then Barrymore goes away and lives with her older sister and her husband while Long hates his job and hangs out with two idiots who drink much and use the washroom with the door open. Director Nanette Burstein previously made documentaries such as American Teen and The Kid Stays in the Picture. Romantic comedies are not working for her and if this film is any indication where she is headed then perhaps documentaries may remain her strong point. Long is given an embarrassing tanning scene where he neglects the goggles. Barrymore fares better but one wonders why her role contains no personality let alone why she would be interested in this guy. Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis are suppose to be comic relief best friends to Long but for all their effort they just come off as desperate imbeciles looking for attention. Christina Applegate is above this pathetic garbage. She plays a woman whose sex life is reduced to her husband dry humping on her leg. Some may say that this film is about long distant relationships but its dull pacing, stupid situations and horrible production values render it a film where the only going distance should be to the nearest trash bin and lit on fire. Score: 1 / 10

juneebuggy Damn this movie made me laugh. I'm not generally one for the romantic comedies but this was very good. Original story, a whose-who list of fantastic secondary characters and genuine chemistry from two very likable leads in Drew Barrymore and Justin Long. I loved the sarcasm between them in their dialogue.The story here is about a guy and a girl who try to keep their love alive as they shuttle back and forth between New York and San Francisco to see one another. They know the odds aren't in their favour but they're going to try and make this work.There are many laugh-out-loud moments here but that sex scene on the dining room table with the husband right there, sitting in the dark, eating a sandwich and then the sister (Christina Applegate) later cleaning and tossing food that falls on the table just killed me. I will watch this one again one day 03.13

Jakemcclake I read many of the reviews of this movie and I have watched most of the movie, and some parts many many times, but I never got through the whole movie. Just the same, I believe I can write about it and rate it.This movie shows a woman in a relationship that is acted pretty closely to what I expect Drew Barrymore's relationships are really like. She as Erin is not a virgin princess of any sort and she comes across as a realistic woman throughout the movie. Additinally, Garrett comes across as I would expect Justin Long to be really like. Therefore, their relationship appears realistic. Which leads one to say - "So What?" The comedy in this movie is really based around their friends Dan, Box, Corrine and her husband Phil and how they interact with this couple. I had to look up those names, because I did not remember them. The comedy is less than hilarious. The romance is not inspiring or that enticing. The music, well, the Garrett character is involved with music, so, the music is the main reason to watch this movie, (The Cure, The Pretenders, Boxer Rebellion etc). If you have nothing to do on a rainy day, then this might be a way of spending an afternoon, just for a listen (to the music).But the story probably will not stay with you or make you laugh, much, if at all.
