Quite an entertaining film. Went in with little expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Film should be enjoyable for fans of most agegroups; funny premise and executed well.

Meet Bill is the story of Bill (played by Aaron Eckhart), a man who is quickly realizing that his wife, weight, job and life are all out of control. His wife is cheating, his stomach is growing, his job is pointless, and he wants more out of life than what he has.

During a random encounter, Bill meets high school student known only as The Kid (played by Logan Lerman), and it is here that the story takes off.

Meet Bill starts off with a bang. We are instantly pulled into the life of Bill, can sympathize with him, and want the best for him. The movie shows great potential for the first 45 minutes as we meet the other cast of characters in Bill's life. We can sympathize with Bill, and ultimately feel good about cheering him on.

But then, somewhere halfway through this film, it unravels. Scenes start to feel pointless. The story meanders, and feels like the writers knew where it would take off, but not how it should land. The pacing becomes a slow, dull crawl. And at the end of the movie, in the last five minutes,
Bill completely falls out of character and decides to shirk everything the movie has built up to, and become a wandering nomad.

The actors do an amazing job with what they are given to work with, and I cannot fault any of them. Each actor threads the film together with great depth. Unfortunately the script doesn't give them much to hold together.

And ultimately, I felt empty as the credits rolled.

A charming comedy about a loser who finds himself in his struggle to remain himself. Aaron Eckhart is simply irresistible - if you haven't liked him by now, you certainly will after watching this little gem.

but like aaron eckhart to hes a great actor example thank you for smoking

If you enjoy spending time with a couple of self centered, shallow, selfish, immature, stupid, silly, immature idiots, this film may be for you...
Any producer/writer who makes a film that makes drugs look like fun and liberating deserves hell on earth as he is encouraging others to do it.. For a talented actress like Jessica Alba to make this after The Fantastic Four is one FANTASTIC FUMBLE!
If anyone asks you why Hollywood is referred to as HollyWeird, show them this pile of cinematic dung...
Sorry I had to give it one star but there is no space ZERO stars..
Beneath contempt...
P.S. It's not even funny!
