Reno Rangan Life in the thirties. Just now destined to meet the life partners, which actually threatening a life long friendship. Yeah, it is kind of reminds plenty of films from the past, but never too old to enjoy, especially if you are a 30+. It was like the next level of the life story to the films like 'Ginger & Rosa', 'Little Birds', 'Very Good Girls'. One knows the life cannot go on, being with friends forever. The friendship could still remain, but when someone comes between them, it won't be the same. That's what this film is about.What worked for this film was the two main characters. A straight and a gay friend, and how their love life or still looking for their life partner portrayed fantastically. The actresses were impressive. They are not like from list A. The director too. I wish her to flourish. Yeah, they talked about 'The Big Leboswsky' in the film, honesty, I thought too as well it an average film. The film was shot within a three weeks. Lot better than I was expecting. I love films about the life. The life transition between youth to middle-age. The lesson one learns from self-experience. So definitely a good watch. I don't see a reason to dislike it.7/10

Julesecosse I am not too sure whether I like this movie or not. It doesn't grab me, but on the other hand it's not too awful.I enjoyed it to a point. It's a light hearted friendship comedy. I thought that the dialogue was excellent, on point, intelligent and well thought out; but I don't believe that the story went anywhere, it was a bit meandering, somewhat like this review!. I didn't think too much of the acting ability of the leads, but the supporting cast was uniformly excellent.I would still recommend it to men and women alike, but not as a priority must see.

Argemaluco Life Partners can be described as a romantic comedy with the typical components of the genre (boy and girl meet, fall in love, break up, reconcile). It can also be described as a "chick flick" with slight feminist touches. And it can also be considered "gay cinema", because it portrays the amorous ups and downs of a group of lesbians in Los Ángeles. In fact, Life Partners is all that and more... and at the same time less. The screenplay covers many aspects, and it ends up falling short in each one of them. This doesn't make the film bad, but it avoids it from being particularly amusing, deep or memorable... it's just tolerable through 93 minutes of hollow narrative calories with a minimum intellectual nourishment. The main pro of Life Partners is the solid performances from Leighton Meester and Gillian Jacobs, who are both completely credible as friends with similar tastes and personality, but different levels of maturity. The main problem of the film is that nothing feels genuinely deep or dramatic. Things happen... there are cheers which don't inspire joy... other things happen... there are conflicts lacking of an emotional impact... and that's how the film goes by, more like a series of insipid vignettes than as a genuine tale about friendship, growth and reconciliation. However, Life Partners didn't bore me, mainly because of the competent works from Meester and Jacobs. Nevertheless, I wish this film had gone farther in any of its facets: funnier as a comedy, more passionate as a romance or more subversive as a gay manifest.

Knox D Alford III (knoxiii) See this movie! I thought I was suffering burnout from ROMCOM's until "Life Partners" reinvigorated the genre with a modern take. If you enjoy "Modern Family", you will enjoy this. It is a story of 29 yr old best friends, one straight, one lesbian & what happens when one, inevitability finds love first. I'm all too familiar with this concept, having had roommates who moved on ahead of me. For one, the 24/7 benefits of support changes only in gender, & for the other, life becomes a temporary vacuum. Leighton Meester looks like a young Winona Ryder & plays the more interesting character. That said, the two main characters really sell the friendship with very real, well written dialog performed with mercurial back and forth. The movie is hilarious & showcases dramatic personality conflicts in the dating world and outside the best friend relationship. I liked that it didn't focus on the stereotypes of lesbian & straight dating so much as the commonalities. In truth, the experiences deal with more similar issues than unique. Each character undergoes a positive transformation in their life which most will identify with as a part of maturation. This in no way is to suggest the movie is too serious. Most of the movie is pure fun as you date vicariously through the characters, privy to their pet peeves & post- date autopsies. The movie captures the finer parts of the twenties & is surprisingly gender neutral in it's appeal. I highly recommend it as a fresh story about familiar topics for anyone in their twenties, or just wants to relive them, while having a great time. Excellent movie! I rate it 8/10 stars for the script, the actresses, the believability & ability to engage men & women alike. Knox D. Alford, III
