Variety
Bujalski puts the plot on the back burner and lets his characters collide and ricochet off one another with a laconic comic grace.

Guy Pearce (The Rover) and Cobie Smulders (The Avengers) are fitness freaks in this romantic comedy about two personal trainers who become entangled with a wealthy client (Kevin Corrigan, The Departed), who has one goal: to be able to take a punch. From the director of Computer Chess.
"Recently divorced, newly rich, and utterly miserable, Danny (Kevin Corrigan) would seem to be the perfect test subject for a definitive look at the relationship between money and happiness. Danny's well-funded ennui is interrupted by a momentous trip to the local gym, where he meets self-styled guru/owner Trevor (Pearce) and irresistibly acerbic trainer Kat (Smulders). Soon, their three lives are inextricably knotted, both professionally and personally." (Sundance Film Festival)
