If this is a comedy, it had exactly one second of laughter. If this is a drama, it had no salient moments. I watched it for free, but I can never get back the time wasted. Who can I sue?

Ryan Eggold of Blacklist and 90210 wrote and directed this romantic dramedy. Unfortunately he could have done with some help. The story isn't good unless maybe it's autobiographical. A man goes to his ex girlfriends wedding to a seemingly better guy in San Francisco. Justin Long is quite watchable as usual. And his too hot for him girlfriend is played by Cobie Smulders. There are some jokes that would be okay if snappier but they tend to drag on too long until they lose their punch. The wedding itself is pretty painful and finally the ending - what's the meaning?

One crucial thing they didn't show is how the relationship ended a year and a half ago.

The story could have been tightened and the ending could have been more clever.

Adam (Justin Long) has just learned that his former girlfriend of eight years, Allison (Cobie Smulders) is getting married very soon in San Fran. Strangely, she invites Adam to the wedding, maybe to make it clear that she has moved on and there are no hard feelings. Adam is stunned. In an hilarious next scene, Adam proposes to and then breaks up with his current girlfriend. She stomps away in a huff. Realizing that he may still be in love with Allison, Adam decides to go to the ceremony. Best friend (John Cho) gives advice. Once in the city by the bay, where his own mother still resides, Adam subtly tries to meet Allison when she is not with her fiance, such as jogging by her place of work when she is about to be finished for the day. Then, too, Adam meets his replacement, good guy Aaron (Ryan Hansen) and agrees to a tennis match, even though Adam hasn't played for years. Suddenly, the big day is here and Adam has not won her over. Can Adam actually take her away from her own wedding, a la The Graduate? This indie film has many pleasures, especially the superb cast. In addition to Long and Smulders, Cho, Dana Delaney, Luis Guzman, Lea Thompson, and many others bring out the best in each well-drawn character. The scenery and costumes are mighty attractive, too. Even more impressive is the bittersweet script and careful direction which will have the viewer laughing and crying at almost the same time. Those who value independent film making will truly embrace this flick with gusto.
