COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Waitlist submitted by schoenbaechlere on August 12, 2013, 8:48am Don't go out of your way to see this. It might entertain you if you are stuck on a plane.

Not as dorky as the cover would have you believe submitted by klickitat on August 16, 2013, 10:01pm Light little rom-com that doesn't succumb to an easy ending.

comedy? submitted by emljas on August 27, 2013, 8:37am My family felt this was a drama. Although there were a few funny lines, the majority of the film dealt with relationship issues. Or maybe we just didn't think the movie was funny. Some trailers were misleading.

pretty wack submitted by jjdijkstra81 on June 15, 2014, 4:09pm Yeah......if you are at home sick and aren't able to watch anything else....I guess you could watch this.....good actors, bad movie.

ok submitted by manz on July 16, 2014, 11:50am Kind of funny. I watched it because I love Tina Fey. It's not that great though. It's good for background viewing.

it's ok submitted by airgood on July 25, 2015, 7:39pm Based on how this movie was marketed, I thought it was going to be way funnier. There were some funny moments, and Tina Fey and Paul Rudd both did well. The plot was generally not compelling, and I found it difficult to become invested in the characters.

just ok submitted by 23lisq on August 8, 2015, 2:38pm Great actors, but the storyline falls short. Watchable because of the cast

Eh. submitted by KOH on August 8, 2017, 2:23pm Actors are awesome but movie is mediocre

ok submitted by kbahleda on July 23, 2018, 10:24am Although not as funny as I was hoping.
