Shallow rubbish.

Rating: 4/10 (4 September 2018)

Four for this is generous. I was crazy enough to stay with it for over an hour before giving up, which makes me stupid (at least for 70 minutes).
It's not funny at all, and why is Steve Carell so over-rated? This banal crap was obviously loosely based on "School for Scoundrels", but Carell is no Ian Carmichael and Gosling (although a good actor) is out of his depth - and miscast - in the Terry Thomas role. Mind you, very few actors could match Thomas as a cad.
Most modern rom-coms are awful and this one is only slightly above that adjective. Seeing a bar full of beautiful women is typically Hollywood: nowhere is there a bar like that, certainly not where I live in northeast England. I only wish.
Come back Frank Capra, or any other director who could get this right.
