Célibataires... ou presque

One would suspect that this film would offer the audience at least a fun experience and a decent amount of humor, but That Awkward Moment fails to deliver in every way. Not only does the film have a very predictable storyline and clichéd characters, it is also poorly paced and lacks any sort of momentum. The writing is weak and provides very few humorous moments, with the only encouraging aspect being the performance of Miles Teller, whose comedic talent does shine through. Overall, however, the three leading men lack any sort of chemistry, which results in disappointing delivery and causes the characters to be uninteresting. That Awkward Moment therefore fails to produce characters that are relatable on a emotional level, despite that being the film's main aim.

Three NYC friends have love trouble. Jason (Zac Efron) and Daniel (Miles Teller) draw cover art for books. Jason has a theory about girls who starts asking questions that begins with the word SO. Mikey (Michael B. Jordan) is getting dumped by his wife Vera (Jessica Lucas). Jason and Daniel tries to get Mikey laid along with their wingwoman Chelsea (Mackenzie Davis). Jason hooks up with Ellie (Imogen Poots) but he mistakes her for a hooker. To their surprise, she's at their work with a book for their next cover art. Alana (Addison Timlin) is one of Jason's bang buddies.

I really like all 3 guys as actors. I like the girls. I find the characters shallow and not in an interesting way. Sometimes it has some funny lines. It has some fun scenes but they don't add up to compelling relationships or even characters. This cast deserves a better script that has real heart. All the blame has to be laid on new writer/director Tom Gormican. Daniel and Chelsea come closest to a compelling story.

That awkward moment is a normal title which could describe dating in general and all the things that come with it and for a romantic comedy to be emotional and funny then Tom Gormican got his debut right.

I had all the scepticism of every romantic comedy I have watched but this film surpassed them all and it could even be a modern pretty woman. Each actor had a fulfilling parts and equally intellectual and funny to go with it. I connected with all the actors / actresses and for that I respect the director and producer in this production. Zach Efron has really shown that he is a consistent actor and co-director and IMHO he is getting it right every time. Miles Teller is proving to be a deep thoughtful romantic in these roles as in the spectacular now and Imogen Poots also fits this role. There is a definite beginning where the old college pals promise to stay single and enjoy all the NYC girls, middle, where each think they can control natural emotions and admit to themselves they can't and ending where they all become happy in love (romantic comedy format )but each part had substance, comedy, emotion and intellect. There is a part in the middle of the film where Zach shows up dressed up in the wrong dress code for the wrong dress up Party which has been seen many times but never better than in this film. If you are in a mood for a romantic comedy, pick this one now and you might enjoy it like I did.?

Well I love those actors but this movie quality is not good or funny

I was discouraged when I saw the low ratings for this film, but thankfully I had already started watching it. It is definitely not comparable laughter-wise to movies such as This Is The End or 21 & 22 Jump Street, but it is very good. The type of humor may not be for everyone, but I found it to be very relatable. The way the jokes were delivered is how my friends and I joke most often. The actors in it were great and the story moved at a nice pace. Miles Teller was great and I now look forward to his work in the future, Imogen Poots was lovely and Zac Efron was great as always. I don't think Efron gets as much credit as he deserves. It portrays a few different likely dating situations that people could find themselves In these days. I would say it's more for twenty-something's than any other age group. If you are at all curious about this movie I say you should give it a shot!
