Try to ignore the general tone of the movie and maybe try to embrace it. A large scale of the audience will find himself not really attracted to the characters, to their problems and to how the way they deal with their problems, but this film has a lot of talent, great writing and even actual existential problems, which no one has the audacity to speak about.
The movie is aiming for a Bourgeois audience, but it has a charm that can relate to a lot of others, if they would give him the chance. Though the plot is talking about a problem of middle-targeting to the high society, it is not talking about rich people's issues, so a wider audience would be able to relate.
If a husband is telling a little lie to make his wife feel better it doesn't matter whether she is running an office as a secretary or she is writing books for a living. If it is not his field of expertise, its his kind word against book critics and audience, which can be mean. This is the core of the movie and from this point we see both; the husband and the wife, get into small time situations that makes them adapt and change their skin.
Nicole Holofcener with a brilliant writing and directing small scenes that means a lot and can unite a large audience around small-big issue. The characters are so well written and represent perfectly dreamy relationships that can fall because of a non-issue and a small fight can become devastating and on the other end it describes in a small manor stories of dead and terrible marriages that are waiting for a word that would push them on a new path of freedom.
I've enjoyed it far more than I could have expected and it was funny, cleaver and very entertaining, profound and Raised a lot of thoughts in regarding the main characters and also each and every small and almost insignificant character which participated in the film.
