All the characters are so funny and likable, all the situations and conflicts so light and solvable, and all the settings are so urban and fashionable that it's hard not to like this candy-coated piece of pop commercial filmmaking. It's a very quick-witted tale of modern dating and cosmopolitan mating rituals with an upbeat soundtrack and beautiful actors. Delicious.

Three bros navigate the perils and promise of modern romance. One is freshly separated from his cheating wife; one is a serial ladykiller who meets his match but is too set in his ways to commit; and one gradually catches feelings for his platonic wingwoman. The prior two stories are par for the course, despite Zac Efron and Imogen Poots being rather likable together. None of the moments are that awkward, and some of the jokes are too "in." What's really surprising is the third story, which begets (another KStew doppelganger) Mackenzie Davis's excruciatingly lovely moment as an open mic night chanteuse with her soulful and modern rendition of "After You've Gone," chased by Miles Teller's so-subtle-and-you'll-miss-it look of admiration then dismissal.

I got a lot of laughs out of the movie, more than I expected, which is a good thing, as I had really low expectations for this movie after I saw the reviews. But the reviews are too negative in my opinion. If you know it's a rom-com, you kind of do get an idea what to expect from the movie. And if you're going in with zero expectations, you might think it's really good for a rom-com, just like what I thought.
