One weekend away together with their significant others proves who really belongs together and who doesn’t.

“As a warning to anyone wishing to see this movie: it is not a COMEDY nor was it designed to be. Jake Johnson usually plays comedic roles but do not expect any big laughs from him or the cast. This movie is essentially a new take on a classic relationship quagmire – 2 adults who are doomed to remain friends despite a strong sexual attraction towards each other.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe films strongest point is the portrayal of realism in regards to adult relationships. You wonu0026#39;t find any cheesy romantic quips or witty comedic banter – just adults trying their best to deal with the problems of love and life. A large portion of the film may seem uneventful but for anyone who has been in this type of situation before, you will establish a greater connection to the lovelorned co-stars.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOlivia Wilde is surprisingly genuine and in-depth along with Johnson. Jason Sudeikis has a wasted cameo (probably decided to be in the film to keep tabs on his new wifey, Olivia). Other then that, no one else really stands out.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt is best to come into this film with the realization that it is not a comedy; that way you will have a greater appreciation of the adult themes laid out.”
