Just when things couldn't get any better, John meets Cyrus (Jonah Hill), Molly's, 21 year old, son. As John and Molly's relationship starts flourish, John slowly starts to realize that Cyrus is doing everything in his power to pull the couple apart.


When I first saw the the preview for this movie, it looked hilarious. But while watching, I felt like the movie couldn't decide between being a comedy or a drama . There were a few funny moments, but most of them were more awkward then anything else. This film is very slow and at times hard to sit through. The one thing that made the film worth while was the acting. I felt that the actors fit well with the characters they were playing. I would suggest renting this one, if that.
If you enjoyed theses films, you'll love Cyrus:
