FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE The F-Word
What was that again? Men and women couldn't be friends because sex always comes between them? The F-Word follows the tradition of intelligent RomCom (romantic comedy), which can even take the genre to new heights. I mean, the dialogue hits a note I've never heard before. This is mainly due to the great Zoe Kazan alias Chantry (yes, she is the daughter!). Her screen presence is stunning, cheeky, clever and attractive - always a bit strange. In short: You immediately understand that Wallace (Daniel Radcliffe) falls in love with her! But the way is still not clear for a happy ending, because she is in a firm relationship - with a lawyer who is as successful as he is unpleasant. A common dinner of all three suddenly turns into a loud, very funny slapstick and ends in the emergency room. The lawyer falls out the window, he gets what he deserves. Chantry and Wallace deny their feelings towards each other and this leads to secret lust & frustration. The F-Word seems completely unspent, the characters somehow peculiar, the location Toronto does the rest. Small but important shifts make The F-Word an insider tip of romantic comedy - for man and woman - and definitely belongs to the kind of film one likes to watch over and over again.
