This movie is painful on purpose. When you realise who and what you are dealing with, it's fun. A movie that wasn't given much chance to succeed in the theater...Keanu and Wynona are great together.
John Wick as a grumpy, petty, cheap, middle aged man that really needs to visit an ENT specialist
Winona Ryder has been single for so long she forgot how to talk to people.
Both smartasses are cynical type that mumble sarcastic comments about everyone else in the room from the corner without noticing how bitter and envious they sound.
The pacing is slow and awkward at times making it seem less like a movie and more realistic, like they were real people or something.
It's awkward, witty, funny, smart and a special kind of sweet. The most realistic rom-com I've seen in ages and a definite must see. I don't get the negative reviews, the one flaw I see is that the leads are too sexy for the "that one loser that came to the wedding without a date" role they were playing but hey I they're good so what!

Definitely not your average rom com, full of cynicism, sarcasm, and dry humor. Ryder and Reeves make the perfect pair, there rapid fire responses make for hilarious banter. Storyline goes a little slow sometimes, and the same conversations are repeated throughout, but you can't help but relate. The hideous imposition of someone else's wedding and the certain joy of finding someone as cynical as you.
I laughed almost from start to finish. Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder are adorable together as two ridiculous people in a ridiculous situation. Anyone who likes dry humor and flawed, broken characters will love this movie.
Watching unpleasant characters onscreen isn't always a fun thing to do, so casting Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder is very smart. They're both charismatic. In their fourth film together, are clearly having a great chemistry, and they won me over. Ryder is a gifted actress, and Reeves, manages to turn his signature woodenness into comedy. And together? It's a powerful force. This story about two narcissistic, cynical characters could quickly have become irritating, but writer-director Victor Levin takes an interesting approach to nearly every scene and his dialogue is relentless. This film isn't the romantic comedy that audiences are hoping for but it's very entertaining and is a must movie theater destination. nikisreviews.gr
