Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Ringo This is a good and funny movie. I do not understand the bad reviews. some sayings in the movie are mega funny, so, just have a look.
canadianbacon-74719 Okay so this movie isn't exactly revolutionary and the whole part with Damon Wayans could have been cut, but all of the women in it are sincerely charming and the relationships and friendships feel grounded and believable in a way that a lot of crazy romcom ones don't. I don't know why this wasn't a bigger hit since it's really pleasant and fun - maybe it should have been a Netflix original? It's a lot like Set It Up, but actually better and smarter! Single ladies, you will totally see yourself in this movie. This is the millennial sex and the city.
Michael Ledo This is a near romantic comedy centering on Alice (Dakota Johnson) who has been cared for her whole life. She breaks up with her college boyfriend Josh (Nicholas Braun) so she can live on her own...with her sister Meg the doctor (Leslie Mann) and her best friend Robin (Rebel Wilson). Robin enjoys being single and leaving her mark all over NYC and gives Alice advice. Meg doesn't want children but delivers them for a living. She has no relationships. As a subplot there is bartender Tom (Anders Holm) and Lucy (Alison Brie) who hangs out in his bar for free Wi-Fi.Rebel brings to the screen her over-sexed outrageous personality that is always good for a laugh, if not shock value. Alice is our protagonist and is a bit on the mousey side, not being able to operate the menu on her remote. Apparently all the young single people in NYC hook-up with somebody different every night without any worry about consequences, making me feel like when I read a Playboy that the whole world is having an orgy except me.While the film had its moments and a feel good ending, it wasn't the formula romantic comedy as there was no "Up Where We Belong" moment.Guide: F-word. Implied sex. No nudity.
dirtphelia At this point I'm going to chuck it up to generational differences and reality because I'm in my 30s and I actually know what real life in NYC is like.As for generational differences, after watching several millenial-oriented movies, I'm going to assume that stupid and imagination-less crass crap is the new funny and that below average women are the new interesting women.As for reality, it reminds me that a paralegal can't afford a full apartment by herself in Manhattan, and that Manhattan night life eats extra large, crass women for breakfast.A horribly, pathetic, failed attempt at re-creating "Sex and the City" for boring millenial women everywhere, this movie is the type that makes very, very naive and, sadly, deluded young women from small towns move to NYC and post laughable craigslist ads such as "Wanted: 1 bedroom apt. Max budget $500." This type of movie is responsible for NYC's young homeless population. Stop making this stupid movie. Thanks!
