This was in no way comedic or romantic. It's a drama all the way with some lifetime movie aspects.
Maybe this movie should be just called Bad.
Potentially, a good plot, but the movie fails to live up to expectations.
I nearly switched off at the half way point and now wish I had.

I found this movie pretty boring. It just didn't have anything different to really catch your attention. It had a few people that I really loved too so it was pretty disappointing.
The script isn't great the lines they have to deliver are pretty cheese at times.
I also think this is a comedy? But it could have fooled me I'll be honest.
I would probably watch something better that is in this similar vain.

This is quite a funny comedy that is unexpected and engages you into the plot. It makes you feel for the married couple! I enjoyed it.
Bad Therapy is a comedy thriller directed by William Teitler and based on the novel Judy Small by Nancy Doyne. The film follows Susan (portrayed by Alicia Silverstone) and Bob (portrayed by Rob Corddry), a couple who decides they need couples therapy. They enlist Judy Small (portrayed by Michaela Watkins), a manipulative and unstable therapist to help them solve their issues. However, they soon learn that Judy has her own intentions in helping the couple.
I think Bad Therapy can be broken into two parts. The first half is fairly ok as it just follows the couple dealing with normal marriage related issues while learning that Judy is a bit odd. However, the second half takes a turn with Judy that seems a bit much even when considering how crazy her character is and how the couple each interact with her craziness. The plot kinda lost me at that point and I became a bit disinterested in the film.
Overall, this is a pretty poor comedy with a not so interesting plot - 3/10.
