I like Shailene Woodley although she's not renowned for comedy. Jack Whitehall I can take or leave. He's not really that funny. But I love SciFi so I decided to give it a try.
The idea is great. Charles has a robot (C2) which is a mirror image of himself which he uses to work and earn a wage, and take women out on dates until they are ready to have sex, then he takes over.
Elaine also has a mirror image robot (E2) which she allows to date and sleep with men in order to get money and expensive gifts from them without her having to sleep with them.
One night C2 meets E2 and they fall in love and run off together framing Charles and Elaine in a crime, knowing they will be caught having mirror image robots which is illegal.
Still with me?
Onwards to some really silly but funny humour. Whitehall and Woodley actually do have a bit of chemistry together but it's not your usual formulaic romance and there are no gratuitous sex scenes. It's all just silly, plain fun and although Whitehall is a professional comedian, he doesn't take advantage of that in the film and sticks to his character.
I really enjoyed it.
