So-so romcom about unlikely couple isn't too racy for teens.

You watch Management thinking of the comedy Aniston and Zahn could have made, and wishing you were watching that movie instead.

Padding disguised as a feature-length screenplay.
September 25, 2009
Not the funny, sunny romp the trailer promises, but a weary, weak attempt at romantic comedy that's far from feelgood.

A completely uproarious one-liner about Joe Strummer is still no reason to watch "Management." Had it stuck with insights on loners inadvertently backing themselves into emotional corners, rather than going for wackiness, it might have worked.

There's more to Stephen Belber's debut than just manufactured whimsy, not least a wise and witty script, and some beautifully sketched side characters supporting two reliably charming leads.

Random weirdness aside, Belber telegraphs this story arc from Sue's first drop-in to Podunk. Message received. No surprises here.

Forget logic here, there's a good cast, nice chemistry and warm feelings all around as they all fumble around for something to bring meaning to their lives.

Despite the obvious Norman Bates-ish resemblance, Zahn is clearly supposed to be dishy. The Zahn/Aniston pairing is without chemistry and there frankly isn't a spark of real life in the whole film.

Management has two things going for it: Steve Zahn and Jennifer Aniston. Luckily, those are two very good things.
September 25, 2009
For the most part, Management avoids the standard rom-com clichés in favour of something more delicate and heartfelt.
June 26, 2009
The trademark hitch in Aniston's line delivery is an effective shorthand for taking a leap of faith. In the case of both her character and her career, Management represents an admirable choice.
