Review of Cavemen

Cavemen (2013)
8/10
A feel-good, funny and charming romcom
20 February 2014
There's romance films like The Notebook, P.S. I Love You etc. but then you have films that don't try to be serious in that way, which are generally called romcoms.

You see these romcoms have a set of typical conventions, and Cavemen being a romcom, ticks all of the boxes need to fulfill it's duty as a fully fledged romcom.

We see four 'playboys' living in one open apartment. Skylar Astin, who portrays the main character of the four is a playwrite/screen writer. He is trying to write a script about love, but cannot, as he has not experienced it yet. He tries to break away from his other friends and find love in the City. His best friend (who is a, you guessed it, a woman) spends a lot of time with him, and they are great together *cough cough*, you can guess what happens here.

The movie is chirpy, slightly suspenseful, feel-good and the acting is pretty solid. For anyone who is feeling lonely, watch this film, it'll make you feel better about yourself and feel motivated, a powerful technique which films posses, much like this one. Some of it is a bit too cliché, but if you're expecting that, then it's fine.

Kudos.
