Single ma non troppo

This is a better than average romantic comedy. I gave this one an extra star, because, although it largely followed the rom-com formula, meaning happy endings for most of the characters, it wasn't obvious who was going to end up with who, or otherwise. Rare is the film in this genre that does not telegraph its exact ending at least forty minutes away. Rebel Wilson played to type and was quite amusing. Alison Brie was lovely, and played her neurotic role very well. Dakota Johnson was absolutely adorable. I hope to see more of her in the future. Kudos to Leslie Mann, as well. The New York sets and photography were impressive, and there were no obtrusive directing techniques.

One-time comedy for a boring evening. It could be used as a great source of white noise to make the process of cleaning your house more bearable. You don't need to watch the film very attentively, because even if you miss 20 or 60 minutes, it will still be clear what happened and what is going to happen. Unfortunately, much should not be expected from this movie.

For me, it was obvious even from the very beginning. The cast, the poster, the soundtracks, and especially the name. Everything gives you a vibe of a cheap comedy where you can't find a single new idea to think about.

The film tells the story of several girls who live their lonely lives in search of themselves. Each character is looking for something unique and necessary for them in their solitude.

So if you aren't ready to spend your time watching something decent and meaningful, the film is just for you.

As suggested above, this isn't the kind of movie that I would watch but, after watching Dakota Johnson In several films and enjoying her work, I thought I would give it a go and I am definitely glad I did. To begin with, the plot line is brilliant showing the stories of several women and how they change emotionally and physically in some cases through the movie. These characters all have their own story arcs, their own personalities and their own ways of dealing with things which creates an interesting interaction when they run into each other. The actresses and actors that play some of the main characters are perfect, playing their roles to their full potential making them lovable and just downright hilarious. The film itself also has some interesting life lessons and things to live by throughout. The film is indeed funny and light hearted and I much recommend it to anyone who wants a good laugh.

Good movie + Rebel Wilson = bad movie

I would have enjoyed this film a lot, if Rebel wouldn't have been it. Her character was so annoying that my family and I almost stopped watching the movie. She has the most annoying roles in movies and they still keep casting her. The roles she plays are really one-sided, the recipe is simple: one joke characters, who know how to party and are allowed to say and do anything.

The story line is not too complex, however, for a one-watch-only movie it is not that bad. There were some good puns and I was kind of interested in the ending.

A mixed cast out of established actors and "Newcomers" aka. "Isn't that the guy from (insert show-name here)" loosens up the mood and gives the general idea that the movie doesn't take itself too serious. Creative details like glowing numbers on bottles and texts in the air also contribute to this.

Furthermore, multiple laugh out loud-moments. Which is always a plus!Rebel Wilson is hilarious. Everybody has to agree at least on that.

Surprisingly not the most stereotypical cheesy wannabe perfect life- ending. A deeper meaning in said ending compliments the movie as a whole, without coming over as forced.

Of course movies like that always sort of have this fakeness about them. I mean, everybody knows that you could never be able to afford this huge apartment in NYC nor experience a love story like that. But you don't watch these films to get realistic life-reviews. You want to simply look at pretty people partying, doubting existence and having sex. In a not weird way of course. "How to be single" will provide you with all three, without making you gag over the silly tackiness.
