    Plot was strange, ending pretty abrupt, but deserved, I would have liked to seen the truth come out.

    its a bittersweet tale of love...

    And friendship. its a bunch or hormonaly driven young career strivers, putting relationships to the test, and the fulfillness of onfaithfulty makes this a saga filled with opportunities, but what happens, its two flies in a whack and the dork of the shows looses his best friend and leaves the premise...the end...

    its a tweak on the nipple story, and the plot buildup are good, but that end take the price of worst end this year. its a film that you may want to watch cause its watchable, but i can almost surtainly guaratee in the name of the grumpy old man that youll never rewatch.

    bitter truth of this new DUMB generation. "cant control whats between in legs"

    The movie starts good , but after half of it, it gets super stupid n really confusing end. the movie is also 1 hour n 10 mins., i guess they ran out of money or idea to finish the movie properly.

    by the way, that story or plot or that situation happens alot in reality . gf or bf sleeping with best friend. its a generational cursed.

    why this movie gets stupid ?

    when the guy's best friend reveal the PLAN to that girl, the story gets really unreal , illogical and weird.
