User Reviews
A mixed cast out of established actors and «Newcomers» aka. «Isn’t that the guy from (insert show-name here)» loosens up the mood and gives the general idea that the movie doesn’t take itself too serious. Creative details like glowing numbers on bottles and texts in the air also contribute to this.
Furthermore, multiple laugh out loud-moments. Which is always a plus!Rebel Wilson is hilarious. Everybody has to agree at least on that.
Surprisingly not the most stereotypical cheesy wannabe perfect life- ending. A deeper meaning in said ending compliments the movie as a whole, without coming over as forced.
Watching «How to Be Single,» yet another comedy released this year hoping that its mediocrity will be forgotten by the time the halfway point of the year comes around, I began to feel a certain pessimistic sadness wash over me. This is presumably a film to showcase the daily events of many single people in heavily metropolitan areas with few cares and big plans every single weekend. Of course, one must reserve some incredulous circumstances that occur in the film as being part of the theatrical spice, but fundamentally, we can hopefully agree that this film looks to profile the kind of debauchery young, single people hope for on their Friday and Saturday nights while they’re not confined to one person.
The film revolves around Alice («Fifty Shades of Grey»‘s Dakota Johnson), a young woman who is dumped by her boyfriend before moving to New York City to work in a law firm. She moves in with Meg (Leslie Mann), her single, workaholic sister who is considering having a kid as a single mother via a sperm donor, in addition to befriending her bawdy co-worker Robin (Rebel Wilson), who holds her countless one-night stands as a badge of honor. During her time in New York City, Alice meets Tom (Anders Holm), an attractive bartender who has rigged his apartment to basically beg a woman to leave after sleeping with him, despite his crush on Lucy (Alison Brie), a bar-regular who spends her time wasting away on dating sites.
As stated, «How to Be Single» features a slew of commendable, high-energy performances by actors who will go on to be tomorrow’s regular comedy headliners. Dakota Johnson shows her talents in a lead role that allows for more freedom outside of confining dialog and flat emotions, Leslie Mann continues to prove herself as one of the funniest and most likable actresses in comedy, Alison Brie, despite having fairly brief scenes, manages to make the most out of them with her sarcasm and dry wit, and Wilson creates a fun, if standard, physical role for her character thanks to her fearless on-screen presence.
This is one of those films where I seriously hope the actors got paid more than the writers because they almost effectively undermine the shortcomings and noticeable imperfections of the screenplay every chance they get. Sadly, the trio of writers, Dana Fox, Abby Kohn, and Marc Silverstein, nearly spoil the pot here by throwing too many ingredients in without adequate preparation. Many of the plot-strands in this film aren’t well developed, and much like hookup culture itself, real relationships are stunted and have an inability to develop when there’s simultaneously too much and too little going on. One doesn’t really notice this until the film ends and they’re walking out of the theater, to their car, or to the bathroom and reflecting on how desperately little in this film gets solved as a result of the film’s scattershot tendencies.
While «How to Be Single» is frequently entertaining and sporadically funny, it’s also thematically problematic and, all-around, misguided with its casual depictions of treating people unfairly and justifying the character’s poor behavior as a path to finding themselves. The commendable cast do all that they can to save this film, but the flaws are too weight to save a spiraling plane from heading anywhere but downwards.

What to know
critics consensus
How to Be Single boasts the rough outline of a feminist rom-com, but too willingly indulges in the genre conventions it wants to subvert. Read critic reviews
