Starts as a light romantic comedy, about the accidental relationship between the girlfriend of a crazily obsessed fan of an obscure forgotten rocker (whom she rolls her eyes about) - and the obscure forgotten rocker. But then the story develops a concept significantly more engaging, culminating in a fascinating table talk in the second half, about the bitter truth behind fandom, and maybe ... following a religion? I've never doubted Ethan Hawke's acting skills, but Rose Byrne (here with Chris O'Dowd again after Bridesmaids) and her knack for comedy through the most subtle gestures, is the true gem of the movie.
