Still trying to recuperate from his girlfriend dumping him Kirk (Baruchel), while at work as an airport TSA screener, he comes to the aid of Molly (Eve), a super sexy blond bombshell who turns heads wherever she goes. To show her appreciation, she invites Kirk and his friend Stainer (Miller) to join her and her friend Patty (Ritter) to an outing, upon which Kirk finds out that Molly is attracted to him. This is a total shock for him, feeling that she is way too beautiful to be interested in him. But the two try to make it work despite the opposition they experience from their friends and families.
Reel Talk:
Not since Something About Mary or American Pie has there been a funnier movie about the perils of dating. Of course this is your typical geek and gorgeous girl or beauty and the beast love story film, but it works because of the fresh and energetic cast, one mainly T.J. Miller who plays the obnoxious Stainer. I don’t think there was a moment that he was in a scene and didn’t get a laugh or the dorky Devon (Torrence) who takes being a best friend to another level when he assist Kirk with one of his problems. And no doubt that Alice Eve is definitely some screen candy that truly compliments Jay Baruchel’s geeky role. Good movie for some good laughs.
