Results is a 2015 indie comedy-drama film directed by Andrew Bujalski, starring Guy Pearce, Cobie Smulders, and Kevin Corrigan. The movie follows the story of three people, Trevor, Kat, and Danny, whose lives are interwoven because of their shared passion for physical fitness.

Trevor (Guy Pearce) is a muscle-bound personal trainer who takes his job very seriously. He is the owner of Power 4 Life, a gym that caters to high-end clients. Trevor runs his gym with an iron fist and believes that the key to success is discipline, hard work, and a sound methodology. He prides himself on being able to mold his clients into the perfect version of themselves.

Kat (Cobie Smulders), on the other hand, is a free spirit who works as a trainer at Power 4 Life. She has a degree in literature, but her passion for fitness has led her to pursue a career in personal training. Kat's approach to training is more about holistic wellness and allowing people to find balance in their lives.

Danny (Kevin Corrigan) is a recently divorced millionaire who is looking for a new meaning in his life. He is overweight, out of shape, and dealing with depression. Feeling like he has hit rock bottom, Danny decides to hire a personal trainer to get back into shape.

When Danny walks into Power 4 Life, he meets Trevor who takes him on as a client. Danny's first session with Trevor does not go well, and he ends up vomiting. Feeling like he needs a less intense approach to training, Danny meets Kat, who takes him on as a client.

As Danny begins to work with Kat, the two develop a friendship, and she becomes a source of inspiration for him. However, Trevor is not pleased with the situation and begins to meddle in their relationship, hoping to get Danny back as a client.

As the story unfolds, each character's vulnerabilities are exposed, and they are forced to confront their fears and desires. The film is a quirky and offbeat take on the romantic comedy genre, with the added element of physical fitness as a central theme.

The movie is set in Austin, Texas, and the city's relaxed vibe and unique culture are evident in the film's visuals and soundtrack. The cinematography captures the city's landmarks and natural beauty, adding to the film's overall charm.

The acting in the movie is exceptional, with Guy Pearce delivering a standout performance as the rigid and controlling Trevor. Cobie Smulders is equally impressive as the free-spirited Kat, who brings a much-needed balance to the film's narrative. Kevin Corrigan's portrayal of Danny is also commendable, and his character's transformation is both believable and heartwarming.

Overall, Results is an enjoyable and entertaining movie that delivers on both the comedic and dramatic elements. The film's message about the importance of balance in one's life is subtle but poignant, and the performances from the cast make it a film worth watching.
