Olivia Wilde's character was so irredeemable from start to finish. Nothing about her was likeable. She was condescending, judgmental and cocky for most of the movie. She tends to have that effect whenever she is on screen. She never comes off as down-to-earth or modest whatsoever. In fact, I usually spend most of the time she is on screen mystified that she keeps getting large roles in Hollywood.
Totally agree. Couldn't stand how she talked as if she is such a cool chick with a bangin sense of humor. Whatever she had to say about herself was really lame.

It was clear to me that Eleanor was a "lost person".
A lot of her behavior struck me as bravado. She was reaching out to Joe, but at the same time pushing him away -- she was afraid to let someone in. She was afraid to take a chance. Joe even said something like this when he said that was why she was involved with a married man.

I don't know if Joe and her are going to work out since their viewpoints are so different and she's very passionate about them. Reminds me of The Way We Were with Streisand and Redford.
shareMost film based relationships don't make it past 2 hours, according to statistics presented by a scientific study I just made up.
shareI don't get why she sat right in between two guys at the bar. I thought she knew them. Why the *beep* would she do that?
sharedon't get why she sat right in between two guys at the bar. I thought she knew them. Why the *beep* would she do that?I don't recall if they showed this but airport bars are almost always packed. I can't count the number of times I've had only one bar stool option at an airport bar and there have been many occasions I've had to circle around a terminal killing time because there was nothing available at multiple bars. share
She was a nightmare.
Good job the guy was a combat veteran he needed those skills.
It's that man again!!
I kept hoping Joe would walk away forever, but that never came. Honestly, I was so let down. Like if it were me, I would have vanished after the first 'clash'.
shareSimply viewing the trailer, I am embarrassed she even agreed to the movie. Her role in this is the eptimote of "tired". Such a cringeworthy plot for her.
