Review of How to Be Single (2016) by Matthew F. J — 28 Dec 2016

At first, I was a bit suspicious, i'm not gonna lie. It seemed like a total chick flick aimed to an american post-teeny audience. Well i'm actually glad I watched it because even though it's at times over the top, some scenes, dialogues and situations ring quite true to what most of us go through in life.

Sure, it's a movie and for entertaining reasons everything is well planed and happens as it should but still, I found the film to have a certain level of accuracie regarding the millennial generation and the way we consume our relationships the same way we consume everything else.

The film offers 4 different path followed by 4 different women, each having an interesting idea of what they want in life, accepting along the way, life isn't the way we imagine but rather something that needs to be lived and experience.

Not the masterpiece of the year, but the camera work, the lighting, the music and costumes all combined with a jolly troop of lovable actors, makes this comedy a nice entertaining film, ideal for a date night at the movies.
