Namoro ou Liberdade

Three NYC friends have love trouble. Jason (Zac Efron) and Daniel (Miles Teller) draw cover art for books. Jason has a theory about girls who starts asking questions that begins with the word SO. Mikey (Michael B. Jordan) is getting dumped by his wife Vera (Jessica Lucas). Jason and Daniel tries to get Mikey laid along with their wingwoman Chelsea (Mackenzie Davis). Jason hooks up with Ellie (Imogen Poots) but he mistakes her for a hooker. To their surprise, she's at their work with a book for their next cover art. Alana (Addison Timlin) is one of Jason's bang buddies.

I really like all 3 guys as actors. I like the girls. I find the characters shallow and not in an interesting way. Sometimes it has some funny lines. It has some fun scenes but they don't add up to compelling relationships or even characters. This cast deserves a better script that has real heart. All the blame has to be laid on new writer/director Tom Gormican. Daniel and Chelsea come closest to a compelling story.

Not the best comedy, but the cast of the film makes it alive.

But the bad timing(execution) and the script makes it hard to watch.

Anyway not that bad.

Feel good comedy for anyone who likes awkward loves stories. : p

Overall - 3/5

Well I love those actors but this movie quality is not good or funny

One would suspect that this film would offer the audience at least a fun experience and a decent amount of humor, but That Awkward Moment fails to deliver in every way. Not only does the film have a very predictable storyline and clichéd characters, it is also poorly paced and lacks any sort of momentum. The writing is weak and provides very few humorous moments, with the only encouraging aspect being the performance of Miles Teller, whose comedic talent does shine through. Overall, however, the three leading men lack any sort of chemistry, which results in disappointing delivery and causes the characters to be uninteresting. That Awkward Moment therefore fails to produce characters that are relatable on a emotional level, despite that being the film's main aim.

I was discouraged when I saw the low ratings for this film, but thankfully I had already started watching it. It is definitely not comparable laughter-wise to movies such as This Is The End or 21 & 22 Jump Street, but it is very good. The type of humor may not be for everyone, but I found it to be very relatable. The way the jokes were delivered is how my friends and I joke most often. The actors in it were great and the story moved at a nice pace. Miles Teller was great and I now look forward to his work in the future, Imogen Poots was lovely and Zac Efron was great as always. I don't think Efron gets as much credit as he deserves. It portrays a few different likely dating situations that people could find themselves In these days. I would say it's more for twenty-something's than any other age group. If you are at all curious about this movie I say you should give it a shot!
