This was really entertaining. A good portion of it was hilarious and the female friendship at the center was honest and refreshing. Leighton Meester and Gillian Jacobs were both great and they're rounded out by a hilarious supporting cast that includes Abby Elliott, Kate McKinnon, Gabourey Sidibe and Adam Brody. It goes on a little long and the ending is a bit cliched, but ultimately I found this very charming. B+

This was really enjoyable and the cast worked great with each other. I did think the third act faltered a bit but the ending was cute.

Really cute movie. Meester and Jacobs were great together (though I kept absentmindedly imagining Kristen Bell in Jacobs' role because that was who was initially cast - and because of my bias I think it would have been even better with her :p). Just a sweet, funny, charming movie. Highly enjoyed it.

8/10 (B+ or A-, haven't decided)
