The rom-com isn't such a lost cause, after all. It was just waiting for someone like indie filmmaker Andrew Bujalski to resuscitate it. Read full review

With this cast, and such a vivid sense of play, Results manages, in its own subtle, unassuming way, to reinvent the rom-com. It’s enchanting. Read full review

May 27, 2015

Smulders, Pearce, and Corrigan are loose and eminently likable, and the direction is so in tune with the actors that one is almost inclined to think of Results as a movie carried entirely by performance, overlooking how much its shape depends on style. Read full review

Results isn’t always a successful film, but its philosophies about the myths of perfection as they apply to love are at least credible, funny and well observed. Read full review

Results is a smooth transition for Bujalski from the fringes to more commercial work. It’s heartening that he didn’t give up his calling-card observational humor to do it. Read full review

John DeFore

Feb 1, 2015

A perfectly chosen cast sells this unhurried comedy, which flows unconventionally but is still, by a long stretch, the most mainstream-friendly picture Bujalski has made. Read full review

It is really not about anything at all except the mistakes, pitfalls and dumb decisions that plague the career of talented but misguided Australian actor Guy Pearce in his attempts to become an American film star. Read full review

This movie is low key good. Not great but good. I think Guy, Colby and Kevin and perfect for the roles.

It's awkward and dull in spots but I don't regret watching it and actually found some of it rather insightful. Don't seek it out but, if it's on, watch it. You could do worse.… Expand

2 And A Half Out Of 5

Results is a character driven dramatic romance about a guy fueled with an agenda to keep the world fit along with her-kind-of-assistant. It is an unstable feature with an uneven script that either tries to score with a glorifying note or a subtle take on the simplicity which both of it is appreciative but in here, is just a misunderstood concept. The chemistry in such features are the spine of it which unfortunately is shatteringly disappointing where the performance too factors in a lot. The premise had a lot to trigger in its self-created complex characters but within its first act the hidden cards are visible and they are not the winning hand. Bujalski's world isn't busy or competent as he might think and the primary reason is his undercooked characters and fast paced rhythmic beat which they feed on, that makes the viewers cringe on seat as the flaws are transparent like water. The conversations are pragmatic and written with a keen awareness of the situation and the repercussions it breeds along with each character's perspective. Instead of getting mature, the script grows juvenile contradictory to the tone of the feature. Addition to that, the crispiness and the tense environment among the characters too aren't communicated with the viewers. It is short on technical aspects like cinematography, background score and editing. Stunning visuals and intriguing conversations are the only high points of the feature. Smulders seems confused to the core where neither Pearce is supporting her and nor Corrigan's vulnerability helps. Bujalski; the writer-director is on his A game on executing the script on screen but has fumbled a lot on writing it. Results fails to score even a distinction on any aspect of the feature where the audience leaves the screen feeling cheated.… Expand

Maybe a more reflective picture of Southern California, but the fact that people pay for personal trainers still today is a bit moronic. I get you may need help to get started, but come on! After a few months motivation should be planted and really easy to continue on your own.

Now moving forward about the movie specifically - it's a bit of a mixed bag. If you can believe the terrible relationship story (unprofessional and weird involvement) that lingers through a few of the acts, its a bland movie at it's root.
Don't see in theaters, might be worth a Netflix rental, but it is hard to hold on's attention on a movie that drags on such as this one. Don't waste your time.… Expand
