Something wrong if people live in these worlds


This film was bad. Real bad.

I am not sure how these things are actually made. Case in point is the drink number thing. That is unbelievably stupid. If this is aimed at people and they have done their research and found people respond to this, it's upsetting.

This could have been a great idea if it was aimed at some semblance of normalcy or sensible behaviour.


So the film should have been called


"How you behave when you are single and read trashy magazines."

I don't know anybody who lives in a world like this. I really do not. I don't want to say the cliched thing of "well I've met a lot of people", but haven't we all. Who are these people who have a world that only revolves around sex and romance? Some people just take things slowly...

Oh I could go on and on, but it's a crying shame that producers and film makers exist who do market research to find that a film like this will work on people.

Utterly terrible. Rebel Wilson's characters was the worst and the way the film tried to justify, everything, everything she did by blaming it on Dakota Fanning was the most desperate attempt to make a desperate comic relief in Rebel Wilson appear significant.

Bad film. Like I said, a film like this could work if it was based upon people who don't live in a wine bar obsessed desperate existence or those that dream to live in that world but it wasn't. Sad.

Not Dakota Fanning but I know what you meant :)

I certainly lived in that world for like 5 years

Sex and romance, all that mattered to me at the time and nearly all I did

Plus a bit of work

And I was in my late twenties

This movie makes perfect sense to me
