Cliche yet not as bad as I expected

How could a movie with such a great cast be so terrible? Well, an unfunny script with alternatingly shrill and smug characters, a completely predictable plot, and boring lead performances, for a start. A total wreck - one extra star for Adam Scott and Chris O'Dowd (despite his atrocious accent).

I wouldn't say "great cast." I'd say sub-par. Besides Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig, I don't see much else marketable.

well, marketability aside, i don't think you could get a much better current dramedy cast than Wiig, Rudolph, Hamm, and Scott. I think the film's problems might start with Westfeldt casting herself, and not one of the other actresses, in the lead.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life. Maya Rudolph and Chris O'Dowd are the only funny people in the movie. Jennifer Westfeldt is a train wreck. How in the world did she think she could carry this movie as the lead? The script is predictable, dirty in unnecessary circumstances, overall unrealistic and laughable. Too "quirky" and uuuuuugh bad bad bad.
