Romantic comedies are a dime a dozen, so it's nice when something like Safety Not Guaranteed comes off the beaten path with a different sort of approach. With the Duplass brothers (writers & directors of Cyrus & Baghead) as producers, you're pretty much guaranteed something a bit weirder than usual.
Dry humored funny girl Aubrey Plaza plays a reporter who sets out to investigate a classified ad, put out by Mark Duplass, in an impressive performance, asking for a partner to time travel with. Even though the film has a strange concept, it's the performances and heart that carry this charming little film.
