Overview
Can two serial cheaters get a second chance at love? After a one-night stand in college, New Yorkers Lainey and Jake meet by chance twelve years later and discover they each have the same problem: because of their monogamy-challenged ways, neither can maintain a relationship. Determined to stay friends despite their mutual attraction, they make a pact to keep it platonic, a deal that proves easier said than done.
Does it travel many of the same road that were prevalent in When Harry Met Sally? Absolutely, especially during the first half of the movie. On it surface it feels like a very cliched premise: can men and women just be friends? But the chemistry between Sudeikis and Brie elevate the film to an enjoyment factor that I was not expecting.
