It's not hard to see the shining star in this film. Maya Erskine (Alice) steals the show in more ways than one.
As for a ROMCOM - this movie doesn't really deviate from the typical Hollywood formula these days - but does a good job of mixing things up occasionally.
What is truly special about this film is Maya Erskine. Her presence on the screen is undeniable. She has fantastic timing and can definitely deliver the goods in the comedy department. Rarely do you see this level of talent these days. I predict a very successful career for Ms. Erskine if she can continue to find good movies like "Plus One".
My only negative comment is, I think the producers could have cast the part of Ben better. Jack Quaid did a good job, but it always felt like he was one step behind Alice.
Definitely worth a watch, if nothing more than to see a new rising star!

Started out quite weird I think but it was like the main characters grew into their chemistry. Absolutely nothing new to see in this movie but it was fine. Cozy, slightly funny. What saves it is definitely the chemistry between the actors but the movie is definitely carried by the actress who plays Alice.
There was nothing new to the story. Everything falls in as expected. Friends become couple, break up, patch up and everything else...
But what I liked about the movie was how the story was shown. Wedding after wedding, Best Man and Maid of Honor speeches. All of that combined with the dialogues, it felt very real. Cast has done an amazing job.
I really enjoyed it. Recommend watching it.
This is a great summer movie! Funny, romantic, and fresh in its approach to a genre that's making a comeback. It's drawn many comparisons to When Harry Met Sally, as friendship is a key part of the romance (which makes the build that much more tension filled!). Maya Erskine and Jack Quaid have great chemistry and Erskine is especially funny.
Yes, this is your typical rom-com but this one has a little more, its funny, predictable and entertaining to watch. We all know the outcome but the journey getting their makes this film notable.
