Easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen; embarrassing on every conceivable level and an awkward experience to watch... I've liked Ed Helms in other movies such as The Hangover but his character Matt in this is one of the most pathetic shells I've ever seen passed of as a protagonist. They overplay the "I'm an effeminate male" thing so constantly that it just gets irritating. As a viewer it's almost impossible to care about anything that's going on. Neither Matt or Anna are particularly likable and the writers don't even attempt to establish any sort of effective character transformations. They're banking on the fact the surrogate mother thing will be interesting enough on its own but it isn't, it's already been used more entertainingly in about 100 Lifetime movies since the 90's! Sure their relationship is cute but it's not cute, quirky, or heartwarming enough for the viewer to get that invested in it. Very lazily done. The movie's attempts at humor are literally cringe worthy. Every time the "comic relief" barista character opened his mouth I could hear a pin drop in the theater. All the scenes with that character were just off putting and awkward.
