Review of Catch and Release

Odd mixture of romcom, slapstick comedy, and tragedy. Young man dies suddenly, and his fiance discovers that he has a secret life, including a possible partner and child in another city.The film explores the woman's developing relationship with the ex-partner's roommates and friends. The klutzy friend delivers the slapstick notes, which really jar with the rest of the narrative. There's also a mean-but-sexy best friend.

Watched on Netflix, and it passed the time. I suspect that there might have been a better, more interesting film in there failing to get out.
