This film tells the story of a young man who meets the woman of his dreams. The morning after, she tells him that she is in fact married. The young man decides to seek revenge, but the most unlikely thing ensues as her husband moves in with him.
It is unfortunate that the story is just over the top, irritating and not funny. The things that happen in the story are just too juvenile. Drinking from a homeless man's boot is something even stoner films writer can't imagine. All the excessive drinking and womanising does not help to make the characters anymore sympathetic either. The two men just appears to be giant jerks. I cannot say I enjoyed watching it.

Charming and full of heart with a great cast and a good script.
Won't get the credit it deserves.

I laughed out loud a lot! I loved the interaction between all four main characters.... Hayden Church, Applegate, Gleeson and Dobrev...but Hayden Church and Gleeson living together and bar hopping was HYSterical! A great eye was paid to the smaller roles too, loved the land lady, bar fly's, tarts and the singer!! The production design of Gleeson's sleazy digs was perfect! Cocktail montages was my absolute favorite! I was not sure of Gleeson as a love interest at first but by the end of the film, I was even in love with him and his dance moves!!! ......A fun and funny film!
This would have been a disaster were it not for Gleeson, who somehow manages to work in his take on the naive nerd looking for true love, who falls for an older married woman (Applegate), only using him for sex to pay back her husband (Hayden Church) for what she perceives is his infidelity.
Gleeson's very good performance allows the audience to bear through a sophomoric script.
Kudos to Thomas Hayden Church whose impeccable timing adds needed snap to the dialogue.
Editng is notable as well.
Gleeson is an impressive actor, and as he (hopefully) stretches himself into more complex roles, will no doubt discover higher ground upon which he can unfold his talent.
I'm rating Crash Pad a 5 (avoiding a 1 only because of Gleeson, Church and overall snappy editing).
The rest of the cast is wasted on this dog of a a script and 5 is generous.
2017 is going down as one of the worst years for movie releases unless the holiday season comes up big to redeem it.

Didn't expect that.
It seems, some people have lost their ability to judge class.
"Crash Pad" is a true gem amongst the numerous romantic comedies that try but ultimately fail to present some real heart and wit.
What expecially stands out with this movie is the witty, polished dialogues.
I haven't heard people talk like this in a long time - it reminds me of the great screwball comedies of the past.
Most movies of today forget that there is a duty to fulfill: To produce memorable characters and quotable, unique dialogue. "Crash Pad" succeeds massively.
I haven't had so much fun in a long time, and on top there's real heart in it.
Don't listen to the bad reviews. You won't regret watching this.

- TriviaWriter Jeremy Catalino originally conceived of the story for Mon coup d'un soir, mon ex et moi (2017) after meeting a married woman online and having a weekend-long affair with her. He wondered what would happen if the woman's husband found out about the affair and came after him. As of the film's release, Catalino and the woman both live in Portland, OR and remain friends.
- GoofsWhen Stensland watches the TV show, "Dawson's Creek," which the character claims was recorded onto VHS from its original air-date, the theme song is inaccurate. It's not the original theme song (Paula Cole's "I Don't Want to Wait"), but rather, it's Jann Arden's "Run Like Mad;" an alternative theme song used for the DVD and Netflix releases to avoid paying expensive royalties to Paula Cole.
