I just finished watching the movie, but it only got on my nerves. There might have been a good plot there somewhere, but the acting just wasn't genuine and the characters not believable at all.
It doesn't have to be exaggerated to make it funny; genuine, believable characters with their quirks can make a movie very amusing, but this general helplessness and the characters' constant shifting in their decisions was neither believable nor enjoyable.
The only clever and entertaining part in my opinion were the split-screen discussions about how to please a woman, for that the movie gets a 2 from me.

The ENTIRE premise of this movie could've been worked out if Andy simply just asked Lauren on her feelings on this relationship. Sadly about 15 minutes in I realized that would never happen and the entire movie would flounder around to terrible excuses for friends and family just wasting 90 minutes of everyone's time. Like others have stated it has an overabundance of clichés and it makes watching this very frustrating. Even if in making this movie the protagonist decides to go about things on his own there are many better ways to do this, instead it's like I've seen this story many other times over, and sometimes done much better than this.
Other gripes, the ending almost killed it and that's why I'm no longer fluctuate between 3 and 4. I mean I've seen worse but really it wasn't funny. Also the editing of the movie and sound were definitely below par. There were points where I could hear thing that were on screen and they didn't match up and times where the scenes were cut poorly with moments that could've been funny but didn't hit because the transition was off. Also the little "reality TV" interviews, confessionals (à la Mr. and Mrs. Smith), highlighted when things weren't working either. Either you met people you weren't introduced to or the confession wasn't really the point. Honestly, I'm not going to harp on about it too much. It was rough, there were a moments when I thought things were cute, mostly with Krysten Ritter but other than that? Nothing.
Honestly it could've been worse and I know I've definitely seen worse but in the end the only thing that save it was the music. The soundtrack was pretty impressive. Sadly many scenes didn't work with the music or was cut to a zero level so you could hear some of the awful script. I would buy the music, if there's a list somewhere I'm in. Other than that this was an unfortunate movie.

Oh my. This movie is so stale I felt compelled to register so I could post a warning to anyone above an 85 IQ. Cliché, another cliché, yet another cliché. The best part was the somewhat clever opening credits score. Most comedies open with something funny. This is the one cliché the movie left out! If you like watching average comedians perform below average, this is your movie. That's all to say but I cannot post without ten lines. So don't read anymore, I'm just trying to make it to ten lines because spending any more time writing about this awful and insulting movie is a waste of my time at this point. I hope that's at least ten lines.
This movie was too awful that i felt compelled to warn my fellow human beings to STAY AWAY from such a disaster. Let me put it this way, if you ever want to upset your partner using a movie, this is the movie for you. The cast is a D-list ensemble cast and the script honestly reminds me of my middle school creative writing class. It is completely cliché with the split screen "mokumentary" been the only mediocre aspect of the movie. The lead actor is as believable as my unborn child. Also, the movie has the tendency to keep you frowning as it went on. The characters' indecisiveness is simply annoying.In general, the only reason you should watch this movie is if your mother's life depended on it. Credit nevertheless to Ken Jeong, his style of comedy never goes wrong.
People who don't have the slightest idea of what comedy is shouldn't call what ever movie they make to be funny. "How To Make Love To a Woman" is anything but funny, its boring and awful. the story is so old and feels like the writer just copied bits from other successful comedies. The acting in this movie can be compared to actors who perform in soft-core porn movies, imitating copied dialogues, trying to be funny and instead making a complete fool out of themselves. so if one day you are having a normal day and want to know what it feels like if you slam your head in the wall for more than one hour than please go and watch this movie.
