Alice (Dakota Johnson) has just graduated from college and decides that she needs to take a break from her boyfriend Josh (Nicholas Braun) to just be "single". She moves to Manhattan and immediately meets Robin (Rebel Wilson), a fun-loving party girl who teaches her that there is a right way to be single and a wrong way to be single. According to Robin, the right way involves getting guys to buy you drinks and having lots of random hook-ups. Along the way, they meet other singles just hoping to find the right person: Tom (Anders Holm), the commitment phobe bartender, Lucy (Alison Brie), the serial on-line dater and David (Damon Wayans, Jr.), the widower. Alice's sister Meg (Leslie Mann) has decided to go it alone and have a baby, then she meets Ken (Jake Lacy) who is sweet, adorable and much too young for her. All of these people are single in a world where the definition of love is an ever-changing thing. Will any of these young singles ever find their true loves?

Ok. I'm sure the critics will hate this movie but Nacho Kim and I had a blast. It is funny without constant foul language (there is some but it seems appropriate for the movie) and the only nudity is of a couple of male backsides - so good for the ladies! HA! It was just fun. There is friendship and love. There are some touching scenes and some very bawdy humor. A fun night out for the girls or a good date movie. If you just want a good laugh, then go see it.
