Review:
I only watched this because I loved Jillian Bell in Workaholics and Idiot Sitter and she more than impressed me. The plot is super cliche and overflowing with forced conflict, but it has some good dark humor and it does its message justice. I didn't have any problems with the cast and the cinematography wasn't anything above average, but was serviceable for what is essentially a darker take on a generic "feel good" movie. The overabundance of forced conflict is the only real issue here. We already know all the points we are going to hit, so it's really grating to watch people start arguing purely because the plot needs them to. The only unexpected thing is the ending which is so abrupt and jarring because it just isn't a spot where you end a story. We need like two or three more minutes to be where we need to be. The highlight is the great cast and good humor. The problem is everything else.
