BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Michael Ledo Three guys vow to stay single. Jason (Zac Efron) is a NYC book cover designer who plays the field. He doesn't realize he is dating a woman until after they break up with him. Daniel (Miles Teller) works with Jason and has a friends with benefits relationship with Chelsea (Mackenzie Davis). Guess how that works out...hint it's a chick flick. Mike (Michael B. Jordan) is a doctor whose wife (Jessica Lucas) wants a divorce and is cheating on him with a lawyer. Jason meets Ellie (Imogen Poots) who is everything he wants in a woman as this throws a wrench into the "everybody stay single and play the field like we're in college" vow.This is a chick flick poorly disguised as a guy's film. We know it is a chick flick because it is overrated due to Zac Efron being in it. It tosses some crude humor at us and some better barbs about relationships, but frankly it is the same old Hollywood shtick that brings nothing new to the table. Having said that, the actors did a fine job in their roles made unconvincing by a trite script.Will do as a chick flick rental, although I thought "The Other Woman" was a funnier chick flick.Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex. No nudity. Efron nearly nude

briefcaseofblues I really enjoyed this movie. There are jokes and scenes in this that killed me. Great cast, acting, chemistry, score and production. I'd rate it a 7.5If you don't like the humor/style, you will know in a few minutes so worth checking out this underrated movie. The score fits beautifully with the film builds--a post-rock industrial feel but more present, telescoping the emotion with the flow of the film.

Andrew Gold Zac Efron, Miles Teller, and Michael B. Jordan are very capable actors. They've proved it time and time again, and That Awkward Moment is held afloat because of the chemistry between these three actors. Their bromance is electric. I would watch an Entourage-style show between the three of them and their antics, it's that believable. Unfortunately, the material they have to work with here is artificial and stupid. There are some lines in this movie that no one would ever say. And I know that's usually the case with romantic comedies, but this movie takes it a step further and totally demeans women every chance it gets, and I'm not one to point out misogyny in movies, but it just gets stupid after a while. "Let's all make a pact to not get into a relationship! Let's keep having sex with random girls and never fall in love! High-five!" It's such a dumb premise, and it's like the script keeps wanting you to hate these characters until they "redeem" themselves by the end but again, it's so artificial that you don't buy a second of it.It's certainly watchable due to the three leads, but ultimately you're left wishing the movie was good enough to accommodate for the acting talent. There are a couple chuckle-worthy moments, and some clever banter between the three guys, but most of the comedy falls flat and the romance is absolutely insane from beginning to end. You don't believe these relationships for a second. The dialogue for the most part is asinine. It turns the characters into caricatures at times because of how fake it is. No one in their right mind would say these things, and no woman in their right mind would react positively to these things. It's so forced from beginning to end.That Awkward Moment isn't a bad movie. It would've been terrible if they cast average actors, but thankfully the stellar cast keeps the movie watchable and mildly entertaining until the end. As a romcom it's insane, but then again, most of them are so you should know what you're getting into with That Awkward Moment.

Scarlett Harvey That 14 year old teenager you writers have been writing crap movies for is now in his 30's and bored with references to penis's and toilet humor and the same old sex frame ups and jokes. It's over. Do some real writing and stop reverting to the easy way out. We hated it. Anyone who actually liked it must be drunk or has never seen a movie before. Or is paid to write good reviews for rubbish movies. Don't even get the DVD. A waste of the actors who looked bored or embarrassed about the lines. And who can blame them, look at the best comedies, the ones you watch time and time again. There's no state the obvious crassness or labored scripts that've been done to death. Can't believe this one got picked up.
