No matter how many crushes you've had or how many relationships you've been in, this movie manages to convey the slightly uncomfortable mix of desire and confusion that arises when you come across that special someone. While Robbie is only 13, his determination to be with his babysitter Jessica conveys the early stages of that feeling of love, and his unexpected wisdom throughout the film even helps Cal on his journey to win back his wife.
Hannah has experienced heartbreak in the past, and Jacob has done his best to avoid settling down in a committed relationship. When they both realise that they're looking for something more, they learn to open up about what they want, and find that missing piece in each other.
Meanwhile, Cal and Emily have been dating since their first ice cream date when they were 16 years old, and despite the fact that their marriage is rocky, they know they still love each other deeply. It takes months of reflection and newfound communication skills for them to realise that their love for each other is stronger than ever.
Even if you've never been in any of their situations, these characters are presented in such a way that viewers can relate. When their stories finally come together, the film manages to convey that love in all forms can be crazy and stupid, but what truly matters is experiencing it for yourself.
