MANAGEMENT is a small budget movie and it shows. The problem is that the elements don't add up. Is it a comedy? Is it a romance? Is it a drama? Life itself is all these things, but something went wrong with the elements here. Maybe too many scenes ended up on the cutting room floor, as at times the scene to scene cuts don't make sense.
Miss Aniston again plays Rachel, her character in FRIENDS. She talks with that hesitant speech pattern that can be annoying. She doesn't seem to finish her sentences as she stops and stutters too often. She's not a bad actress, but I wish she'd stop with those mannerisms. She tries to act natural, but it comes off as "unatural" Many actresses have a range of A to Z...hers is more like A to G.
One implausible element is when the Steve Zahn character is parachuting. How did he manage to hit the exact home that Aniston is living in???? Quite incredible.
The Woody Harelson character is the least interesting and should have been written and played differently. There is no reason Aniston would be with him.
Actress Margo Martindale who played Zahn's mother was wonderful and too bad she left the film so early.
I DID like the ending with the butt touch. Also
