Where to Watch Trainwreck in Canada

Trainwreck has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available in Australia on BINGE, and in the US on Netflix. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. 2,748 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Amy Schumer sets the tone, and the rest of the cast matches it scene for scene. Start it on BINGE whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Trainwreck is worth clearing space for. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate Trainwreck from the crowd. Ever since her father drilled into her head that monogamy isn't realistic, magazine writer Amy has made promiscuity her credo. As much as she enjoys an uninhibited life free of commitment, Amy is really in a rut. While writing a profile about charming and successful sports doctor Aaron Conners, she finds herself actually falling in love for the first time -- and what's more, Aaron seems to really like her too. Amy Schumer and Bill Hader lead a cast with the timing to make it work. Trainwreck came out in 2015. The timing in Trainwreck is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Trainwreck is a strong candidate. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Amy Schumer's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.
