This movie is so color saturated as to make it look like a candy wrapper. Because, this movie is candy for cougars and female teachers that lust after their underage male students. Polly is about as sexist as Harvey Weinstein when she depicts men. Either they are 'dogs' or irresistible hotties that women have no impulse control over and must jump on top of. This movie seems to be Polly's way of getting back at all the good men in her life. Polly here makes a thesis why women should dump good men in favour of louses. Generally the movie is a yawn fest. But the icing on the unbaked cake is the ridiculous, over the top, completely unnecessary, overly long sex montage where she spends way too long positioning Michelle Williams in a variety of sex positions while the camera insinuates the passage of time. Polly isn't happy until Williams has worked her way through the Kama Sutra. When I saw this at the theater the whole audience burst out laughing at that scene. Polly clearly needs to visit PornHub more often and perhaps invest in a Japanese bedside toy. This movie is for women that dream of leaving a loving home and family to screw every good looking, underage, poor narcissist or homeless person she sees. The only thing missing here is the canned laughter.

The story follows Margot (Michelle Williams) who without doubt loves her husband, Lou (Seth Rogen), and has been married to him for years, one day she meets who turns out to be her new neighbour on a plane Daniel as she gets to know him more she cannot deny her feelings for him.The story focuses on the married couple's relationship and their attempts to reignite a lost spark between them. It's daring for the filmmaker to portray a story about infidelity in love. Many love films portray infidelity as something committed by the antagonist or villain of a film, yet this film seeks to, on a very human level, understand how this can happen in long loving relationships by inviting us into the mind and heart of Margot.A moment in the film that really resonated with me was when she was the most joyful and with Daniel, when they were on the fair ride with the song "Video Killed the Radio Star." By Buggles playing. It's the moment that the film invites the audience to see what's important as they can relate it to a previous sequence where she explains how much the song meant to her and her brother. This emphasized by the end sequence as the song is playing at the end, telling us how important Daniel is her happiness.It's a love story like no other, as it is about loving two people. There is an overall sadness about the marriage and that she wants it so much to work, yet she has love and desire for another man. The husband is portrayed as understanding to her by the end of the film as the have realized their unhappiness.It's a very powerful and enjoyable film that explores the nature of love and relationships.

Nice movie, simple story, a piece of life. A little sad but absolutely a good movie. Good story and nice actors make at first impression a not very profound movie...but think again. May not be the best movie that u ever see, but i still remember this title with joy. I have no intention to tell you something that spoil your surprise of this movie. No idea come from me, and i do not recommend you to see the trailer before the movie. This is a rule, trailers must bee seen only for bad movies...when you ll not see the movie anyway :). This is not the case. Take This Waltz is a nice, simple movie, that must be seen. Is a perfect snap shot of what can be anyone relation.

Disappointing.Had real potential as a relationship drama, but is clumsily told, and full of pretentiousness. Doesn't fall apart completely - just when you think there is no hope for it, the movie has something semi- profound to say. Sadly, these moments are few and far between.Good cast wasted. Michelle Williams' dramatic skills are evident in the first half of the movie but from a point, pretty much the same point as when the movie turns to sh*t, her performance becomes one of crying spells and distant stares. Seth Rogen and Sarah Silverman are great comedic actors but they hardly have a funny line between them. Rogen seemed out of his depth, and clumsy, in a romantic/dramatic role.
