Featured review
Mack (Gina Rodriguez) is the leader of her guy friends including best friend Adam (Damon Wayans Jr.). The friends all work together and most of all, she runs 'plays' with them to get hot dates. One day, hot famous reporter Nick (Tom Ellis) walks into the office. He's a friend of her boss. She decides to run a play on him.
I get it. This role is traditional a dude. It's Wedding Crashers or any number of stories where guys scheme to bed the hot dumb girls. Only, the translation cannot be done one for one directly. First, she needs a reason to do what she does. She needs romantic trauma to send her down this road. Second, the romantic entanglement should not have a fourth wheel. A love triangle is so much easier. As its heart, this is a simple rom-com. The rom is a bit of hit and miss. The com is struggling. Gina Rodriguez is a nice charming actress and she makes this barely acceptable.
