About This Movie

The chemistry between the leads, played by Jennifer Westfeldt and Adam Scott, feels genuine, almost like watching real friends navigate the complexities of modern relationships. The pacing is pretty laid-back, allowing for those moments of reflection amidst the humor. There's a certain rawness in how it tackles parenting and friendship, which is refreshing.
