Michael Cera contributes to the accesability of the whole project, I mean it's Mike Cera, a normal dude, scoring with kinda hot girls in other movies but still in a reasonable, acceptable way, and just falling in love with a normal girl in this one. Hipsterrunoff wrote an article on the movie and said this about Michael Cera, which is prolly a good observation:
Feel like Michael Cera represents a woman’s desire to ’settle’ for a guy who isn’t handsome, but might be quirky, and allegedly ‘funnie’. He will do things for you like ‘make you a mix tape on an actual tape’ even though you don’t have a cassette player, and ‘bring u shitty gifts’ that u are able to consider ‘meaningful.’ Guess that might be why general bros h8 him–general bros are not willing to ‘be comfortable with who they are’ enough to find some sort of happiness with a girl who is clearly ’settling for u.’ Both parties in the relationship share mutually resentful feelings towards one another because they both feel like they are ’settling.’ Seems ‘very hard’ 2 be happie.I think that about sums it up, and that's why I like Mike Cera even more!
Oh, and the soundtrack to the movie is also quite wonderful, Charlyne and Mike made it themselves and it's kinda lo-fi, which gives the whole movie a Wes Anderson-vibe.

It's all explained in this cartoon actually...
