After 20 something Alice (Dakota Johnson) breaks her steady long-term relationship with her boyfriend (Nicholas Braun) to move to New York to learn how to be single. There she befriends other similar girls living the single life.
A standard self-help BRIDGET JONES type of 'chick flick' with Rebel Wilson thrown into the mix to add more in the way of physical and adult comedy and provides the majority of the laughs.
The Manhattan settings are glossy and it should come as no surprise that the film is based off a novel by Liz Tucillo who wrote many of the scripts for 'Sex and the City' as well as being the author of 'He's Just Not That Into You'. But as is typical of these films, as much as the characters are wanting to be single they of course find and traverse love. It does its best to avoid the influence of social media, but falls into the usual trap of young professionals living in fancy SoHo apartments. I'd love to know what their secret is!
