Greenberg

Greenburg doesn't really tread any new ground as far as story, it's pretty much just another fish in the 'indie' ocean. However, Ben Stiller and Greta Gerwig are great in the lead roles, playing awkward and irritated really well. Rhys Ifans was also on top form, showing exactly how to execute the 'less is more' technique. The script/dialogue is perfect and that's what really sets Greenburg apart from the rest, the party scene where Stiller challenges the 'Kids' is brilliant and a perfect example of this. A pleasant surprise from Baumbach following the disappointing Margot at the Wedding.
