Synopsis

Still single seven years after the breakup of his marriage, John (John C. Reilly) has all but given up on romance. But at the urging of his ex-wife and best friend Jamie (Catherine Keener), John grudgingly agrees to join her and her fianc� Tim (Matt Walsh) at a party. To his and everyone else's surprise, he actually manages to meet someone: the gorgeous and spirited Molly (Marisa Tomei). Their chemistry is immediate. The relationship takes off quickly but Molly is oddly reluctant to take the relationship beyond John's house. Perplexed, he follows her home and discovers the other man in Molly's life: her son, Cyrus (Jonah Hill). A 21-year-old new age musician, Cyrus is his mom's best friend and shares an unconventional relationship with her. Cyrus will go to any lengths to protect Molly and is definitely not ready to share her with anyone, especially John. Before long, the two are locked in a battle of wits for the woman they both love�and it appears only one man can be left standing when it's over. Written and directed by Jay and Mark Duplass, the iconoclastic filmmaking team behind Sundance Film Festival favorite The Puffy Chair, Cyrus takes an insightful and funny look at love and family in contemporary Los Angeles.

Reviews

"A dulcetly crazy, certifiably hilarious and eerily mysterious little comedy."

   - Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

"Cyrus cues us to expect it to go over the top, but the film never does. That may be its neatest trick"

   - Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

"Amuses and unnerves in equal measure. A comedy of discomfort that walks a wonderful line between reality-based emotional honesty and engaging humor, it demonstrates the good things that happen when quirky independent style combines with top-of-the-line acting skill."

   - Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

"Cyrus, the summer's best, most original and crazily inventive comedy, is potently funny and painfully real."

   - Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

"There�s an original comic temperament at work here, and that�s rare."

   - Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
