Being a devotee of sometimes unpopular tv, I was psyched to see stars from Gilmore Girls, Friday Night Lights and the short-lived October Road all converge in one movie for 20-somethings.
The Good Guy is about Beth (Alexis Bledel) and Tommy (Scott Porter), a young couple in NYC. Tommy's new coworker, Daniel (Bryan Greenberg) arrives on the scene, and after some grooming from Tommy, all hell breaks loose.
At one point the whole plot of the movie is transparently read off the back of a book cover Beth is nominating for book club, but as the pieces start falling into place, you realize the person you've been suspicious of is completely authentic and the one whom you've trusted is not who they purported to be.
The movie includes suitable cameos from Anna Chlumsky, Andrew McCarthy and Aaron Yoo. Overall, it is a good rental: interesting, fun at times and has a great soundtrack featuring Stars and Lets Go Sailing.
