I’m a huge Olivia Wilde fan and this role is definitely a treat to see her in. You get the sense that she’s being her all-natural self with hilarious sense of humor, and the whole cast seems to bask in that territory as well. Director Joe Swanberg, known for his effortlessness in allowing his characters to improvise and seem as natural as possible, doesn’t fail here. This movie perfects in the comic timing and cleverness we can’t get in real life. And Wilde definitely reveals a lot more depth and ambition than mainstream Hollywood would normally permit; we get a real glimpse into any everywoman living under her circumstances.
This is an easy and fun movie to watch, though, with that comes its easiness to neglect the subtle value inherent in it. The characters are written with ease and placed under circumstances familiar to us. It refuses to preach or hit you on the head with ideas or thoughts about relationships, as much more is said about how things would play out as they would in real life–without any of the extra drama or dragged emotions. A slightly off-beat indie-film charmer with a cool alt-rock soundtrack to match, its joy is found in the unspoken but felt feelings that offer us the normality of reality. It’s real and familiar to us, which is what makes this film so great.
To say the least, “Drinking Buddies” makes you realize how charming love and relationships can be when you can be honest to yourself, with yourself, and with others. It seems like a loosely-written script only because the film plays itself out so naturally; it’s hip, charming, but also takes a witty approach through its characters who hide behind their wits and unsaid feelings. This goes great lengths to talk about the day and age we live in–we can’t help but want to love and root for the charmingly flawed characters we see, maybe because we can see a part of ourselves in them too.
As other reviews indicate, this style of film may not be what you are expecting. It could be considered quiet and understated if compared to other films and TV shows we've seen these actors in. For me, that in no way makes it boring; less is much, much more in this case. But if you are looking for a slick, fast-paced production style like New Girl or Pitch Perfect (both of which I do love) you will not find it here. What you will find is a snapshot of your own life mirrored right back to you with no embellishments, no glossing over, and no easy answers. This, to me, is story-telling at its best.
