It finally hit theaters, based on that fun little book I read ages ago... just a massive ensemble cast, the usual back-and-forth of modern dating, and all that typical romantic nonsense...

Has anyone caught it yet? What are we thinking?

I had such a blast watching this; it really gave me a good laugh. Ginnifer Goodwin is just absolutely precious.
Overall, it’s a really enjoyable film, and I’d definitely recommend checking it out.

I haven't had a chance to sit down and read it yet, but I have already heard the consensus that they managed to ruin yet another great book.

Doesn't it look like Jennifer Connelly is in this?

An incredibly poor film. It tries to pass itself off as a romantic drama, but in reality, it’s just an uninspired script built entirely on tired clichés.

The book is based on an episode of Sex and the City. Still waiting to dive in. 🙂

Nah, it's Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Ben Affleck, and even Scarlett Johansson (putting her last on purpose 😳)...

Not really worth it🤷

Sure, it’s fine if you want to kill two hours, but... we're talking about four women dealing with absolute chaos or just being stuck in toxic relationships. Honestly, who actually gets a happy ending and who just ends up in some endless, sappy melodrama? It’s just tedious...

The only redeeming qualities in this film are Jennifer Aniston's hair and Scarlett Johansson's curves🙂

That movie was a total disaster.
And Jennifer Aniston is driving me absolutely insane. 👎

Movie title... is that a quote from Sex and the City?
Or does that book actually exist? 😁

I mean, the movie was fine, I guess, but I’m pretty sure the book was way better 😬

that little girl who got all tangled up with Alex was actually kind of cute 😍

Watched a movie last night—it was sweet enough, I guess... the cast was pretty likable too. Overall, I don't regret spending two hours at the theater (except maybe $3.75 for half a liter of Cabernet 👎)!

So, does that book actually exist? 😁

He says this:
He clearly couldn't care less. This book by Grega Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo is pretty wild and honestly hilarious. They’re the heavy hitters behind the scripts for Sex and the City, and this whole thing is basically based on one of those classic episodes. Who knew?

She picked it up at a 7-Eleven or something for like... $13 Honestly, after getting through two-thirds of this, I'm just disappointed. Is it really that bad? 👎
Now I'm not even sure if I'd bother seeing the movie.

Basically, the whole book is just a bunch of letters from fed-up women sent to Grega, and he replies by explaining how they can actually understand their men from a guy's perspective. His take on every single issue pretty much boils down to one thing: if he doesn't care, he doesn't care. He basically says women should just call him out the second things aren't going their way, because honestly, every woman deserves to be treated like a queen. 🙄 🙂

So cliché. It’s basically just a bunch of recycled slogans on repeat. I'm a total catch. 🙄 🤣 Same here... honestly, I can't even wrap my head around how this movie should actually look. 🤔

I picked it up at a newsstand for about $13—but ugh, after getting through two-thirds of it, I was so disappointed. 👎
Now I'm not even sure if I'd bother watching the movie.

So, the gist is that the entire book is just a collection of letters from unhappy women writing to Grega, and he replies to them, trying to explain how to better understand their men from a guy's perspective. But the answer to every single problem basically boils down to "he just doesn't care" and that the woman should just take charge the second she feels things aren't going her way, because hey, every woman deserves to be treated like a queen, right? 🙄 🙂

It's just so cliché! It feels so stereotypical American (like, these mantras keep popping up every few pages, like "I'm a total catch" 🙄 🤣 and stuff... I seriously can't wrap my head around how a movie is even supposed to look based on this! 🤔


The movie isn't nearly as mushy as the book sounds in the description, and the plot isn't quite the same either. Personally, I think it's worth watching, especially for women! 😛 🙂 Sure, some of the characters act incredibly stupid sometimes—especially the one played by Ginnifer Goodwin—but it's totally bearable since the whole movie doesn't revolve solely around her. Honestly, it's way better than most of today's "romantic comedies," if you can even call them that 😬, because half the time those movies aren't even funny.

My friend and I spent an entire month getting hyped for this movie. We were scouring every corner of the internet, trying to find it on various file-sharing sites, but we couldn't find a single trace of it. Honestly, at first, we thought, "Wow, the digital protection on this must be incredible if it's this hard to track down." But after finally sitting through the whole thing, we realized the truth: there wasn't any high-tech security protecting it—it was just so incredibly bad that nobody even bothered to upload it. I know everyone has their own preferences, and I truly mean no offense to anyone who enjoyed it, but in my opinion, this film is absolute trash. It felt like an insult to human intelligence, and frankly, it wasn't just women who were insulted; men weren't spared either. This movie serves as definitive proof that even a stellar cast filled with genuinely talented actors can't save a production from being a total disaster. I feel so cheated for having wasted $10 on this. I don't think I've ever been this profoundly disappointed by a film in my entire life. It isn't even suitable for a fifteen-year-old girl, let alone someone with enough intellectual capacity to actually think. It was a complete failure—just horrific. I’m honestly still having nightmares about what I watched. From now on, I know better than to trust a big-name cast or a massive marketing campaign. I'll be checking the reviews first, though even those aren't always reliable. If I had known anything at all before seeing the trailers, I would never, ever have watched this.

Someone who saw it right before me was all like, "Oh my god, you HAVE to see this! The whole theater was dying laughing and giving standing ovations... blah blah blah."
Personally, I wasn't feeling it at all. There were parts where it was just so boring I thought I might lose my mind. It was way too predictable...🤷

Exactly. Total junk. The only redeeming quality in the whole thing is Scarlett Johansson.😍

To movie was a total disaster. The ending specifically? Absolute garbage. I honestly went in thinking it might follow some of the charm found in Hitch, but man, was I wrong. The disappointment was massive.

And just like Scarlett Johansson said, she was the only redeeming quality in the whole thing. It’s a damn shame how much Jennifer Connelly's performance fell flat. What a tragedy. Where did that beauty from the genius mind go? 😲
