Am I the only one who finds this seriously underrated?

There were some minour issues with one or two scenes, Amy Smart was not quite up to her role, and it could have been a bit longer (though that still means I wanted more of it). But overall I really liked this and I have to wonder if the negative reaction shows that you can get away with all kinds of twisted *beep* in movies today, but you'd better not cross the taboo line of making your sympathetic protagonist potentially end his marriage (especially one with a kid) because he's unhappy and falls for someone else.

I don't know about underrated. It was decent. I found myself rooting for Patrick Wilson and Lynn Collins characters. Amy Smart, who I also really like, got the semi-thankless role. They didn't make her bad, just that she had a different priority than that of her husband.

Lynn Collins is really beautiful in this. It's not easy to see how any man who met her could fall for her, particularly if his current relationship wasn't solid.
