Plot: New York City is full of lonely hearts seeking the right match, and what Alice, Robin, Lucy, Meg, Tom and David all have in common is the need to learn how to be single in a world filled with ever-evolving definitions of love.
Rating: 6.5/10
This movie is this year’s most chick-flicky flick of all time. I have been so excited to head out with some girl friends and I finally did Wednesday.
How to be Single is exactly what we want it to be. It is hyper unrealistic mixed with handsome men, women struggling to get a grip on life and girls being friends forever.
Dakota Johnson is perhaps the most enjoyable, really because it is something where she isn’t being abused. I really do like her and her unique sense of fashion, which suits her to a tee.
Rebel Wilson is surely underused, but still greatly entertaining. I wish this girl could get her own movie, I truly do. Leslie Mann really worked well in her role too, and it was nice discovering that she can be really good to watch when she plays something different than a ditzy trophy wife. I don’t truly get the point of Allison Brie’s character, but she was also quite a bit of fun.
The male leads are all rather insignificant, underlying the point that the movie is not about men, but surviving on your own and enjoy some time where you don’t have to fully account for all your moves (yes, biased).
Did I enjoy it? Very much. Sorry, I’m not terribly eloquent tonight. I had fun and I was entertained, and it is a great film for what it is – a great movie to start a girl’s night with.

So glad to see you had a good time while watching this, I know you had been quite excited for this 🙂
It was fun!
I loved the trailer to this movie, I want to watch it sooon! I love Dakota, she’s an interesting character to watch. Rebel just adds so much spice.
I had such a good time! I hope you enjoy it! 🙂
Underused? I thought Rebel was the star of the film?
She is, but she is missing from segments in the film
Oh ok. She was in the trailer and film posters loads so I was curious.
Nice review! I saw this yesterday and it was a lot of fun! Perhaps not the “greatest” romantic comedy / script, but the cast was great together. The movie’s just full of laughs and touching moments too.
Thanks. I agree with you there 🙂
