Synopsis

As she waits to enter her 30th birthday party, Rachel White (Goodwin) can’t escape the feeling that her life has not turned out like she thought it would. Sure, she has a good job at a prestigious Manhattan law firm, but she works long hours and her boss is a tyrant.

She has her childhood best friend, the beautiful and vivacious Darcy (Kate Hudson), but seeing her flirt with her handsome fiance is just another reminder that at the end of the party ? like every other night ? she’ll be going home alone. Except, this time, she doesn’t. Rachel wakes up the following morning next to Dex (Colin Egglesfield), her law school study partner…and Darcy’s fiance. Both of them are horrified?how could they let this happen?

Rachel tries to move on with the support of her seemingly "gay" school friend Ethan (Krasinski), but as the wedding approaches, she begins to realize that it wasn’t a mistake after all, and maybe Darcy isn’t the friend she thought she was.

Testing Friendships

Amos Lassen wrote on 07/28/2011:

Rachel (Ginnifer Goodwin), a lawyer, falls for Dex (Colin Egglesfield) who just happens to be her best friend’s fiancé. When she was in law school, Rachel began her love for Dex but she was too shy to say anything. Dex then met Darcy (Kate Hudson) who really cannot be bothered with him but his wealth and family let her know that this was the guy for her. They get engaged and Darcy asks Rachel to be her maid of honor. Rachel still feels for Dex and it still too shy to say anything but when Darcy gives her a birthday party, Dex is there. Rachel gets him alone and tells him how she feels. After a few drinks, they spend the night together and neither can say that it meant nothing. Rachel’s good friend Ethan (John Krasinski) tells her that she will live a life of regret if she just lets it go.

The young cast does admirable acting and the friendships are totally believable but that is also because the screenplay is so good. Granted the story is far out there somewhere but it comes across as believable and I must give the actors credit for that. The real star here though is John Krasinski who puts the movie in his back pocket and walks off with it. He had the best lines and his delivery was wonderful.

Is this a great movie? I would not say that but it is pleasant enough and a nice way to spend some time. It opens your mind about what really makes a person happy and whether we are living out lives for others or for ourselves. There is anger and sadness as well as anticipation in the film.
