    Cringe-worthy
    There were endless opportunities for creative jokes and situations. Unfortunately nothing was funny, and every terrible line was delivered as though it was supposed to be a punchline. Awful script, poorly acted, and I left the theater after a certain point. This was complete cringe. And I had my hopes up that this would be a fun, raunchy comedy in the vein of Knocked Up. As a fan of Broad City, I had certain expectations in terms of comedic performance by Ilana Glazer. I also thought her writing contribution would ensure some laughs. What a complete letdown. I had never seen her co-star before this, but she was also incredibly annoying and very unfunny. Skip it.

    If your a New Yorker you'll understand!
    This was a really funny movie that made me laugh and feel a longing to be in New York again. The characters were a little over the top but they seemed like real people that I grew up with in New York. It's worth seeing though maybe not in the theater?

    It touched on many friendship-related topics in a mostly comfortable manner. I wish my wife had been with me to watch this movie. I saw it in a sneak preview night at my local theater. When it comes out I'm going to see it again with my wife.

    It wasn't my typical movie selection but I'm glad I went and I hope the movie does well so that the people behind the movie get the opportunity to make more films.
