    A poorly made romcom

    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.

    To commit to non-commitments

    Zac Efron, Miles Teller, and Michael B. Jordan all face That Awkward Moment in this film when analyzing their respective futures as far as friendship and women are concerned. Efron wants them all to commit to non-commitents. But things have a funny way of not working out as we'd like them to be.

    That Awkward Moment has the look and feel of a Brat Pack type film from the Eighties. Efron could easily pass as a younger version of Rob Lowe. This film reminded me a bit of St. Elmo's Fire. Sad to say it's not as good.

    It's all right and should be please Zac Efron's fans. But it's hardly anything special.

    Three capable leads competing with a ridiculous script and horrendous plot.

    Zac Efron, Miles Teller, and Michael B. Jordan are very capable actors. They've proved it time and time again, and That Awkward Moment is held afloat because of the chemistry between these three actors. Their bromance is electric. I would watch an Entourage-style show between the three of them and their antics, it's that believable. Unfortunately, the material they have to work with here is artificial and stupid. There are some lines in this movie that no one would ever say. And I know that's usually the case with romantic comedies, but this movie takes it a step further and totally demeans women every chance it gets, and I'm not one to point out misogyny in movies, but it just gets stupid after a while. "Let's all make a pact to not get into a relationship! Let's keep having sex with random girls and never fall in love! High-five!" It's such a dumb premise, and it's like the script keeps wanting you to hate these characters until they "redeem" themselves by the end but again, it's so artificial that you don't buy a second of it.

    It's certainly watchable due to the three leads, but ultimately you're left wishing the movie was good enough to accommodate for the acting talent. There are a couple chuckle-worthy moments, and some clever banter between the three guys, but most of the comedy falls flat and the romance is absolutely insane from beginning to end. You don't believe these relationships for a second. The dialogue for the most part is asinine. It turns the characters into caricatures at times because of how fake it is. No one in their right mind would say these things, and no woman in their right mind would react positively to these things. It's so forced from beginning to end.

    That Awkward Moment isn't a bad movie. It would've been terrible if they cast average actors, but thankfully the stellar cast keeps the movie watchable and mildly entertaining until the end. As a romcom it's insane, but then again, most of them are so you should know what you're getting into with That Awkward Moment.

    That Awkward Moment (2014)

    Not the best comedy, but the cast of the film makes it alive.

    But the bad timing(execution) and the script makes it hard to watch.

    Anyway not that bad.

    Feel good comedy for anyone who likes awkward loves stories. : p

    Overall - 3/5
