Can 19 wrongs make Mr. Right? When Ally Darling reads an article that leads her to believe she’s going to be alone forever, she begins a wild search to find the best “ex” of her life. But Ally’s quest to reconnect with her former lovers goes hilariously awry, from a puppeteer who’s more wooden than his puppet to a gynecologist with a spotty memory. Through it all, Ally might just find the man of her dreams in the last place she ever expected.

| 2:22 | This is exactly how Bridesmaids started. |
| 7:24 | I'm curious what the point five of a lover is. |
| 9:16 | "It looked very different on the mannequin." |
| 14:53 | Bumping into your boss on a night out must be awkward. |
| 22:07 | How is that Captain America? He's completely different. |
| 26:28 | This film wouldn't work without Facebook. |
| 27:37 | She has a keyboard imprinted on her face, how have they done that? |
| 33:30 | Assuming he is her future boyfriend, and that is a safe bet, it's weird that he's going to know all about her exes. |
| 36:32 | "Well, he clearly doesn't understand what Facebook is for." |
| 40:08 | Two of her exes live next door to each other? Small world! |
| 41:19 | That is the worst English accent ever. I love it. |
| 43:06 | My Fair Lady reference is the best bit of the film so far. |
| 47:41 | "It just feels like this quest you're on is a little nuts." Indeed so. |
| 51:21 | Segways! |
| 52:04 | "Looking at somebody's playlist is like reading their diary." |
| 1:00:31 | "Just because it's dark doesn't mean you have to whisper." |
| 1:09:18 | Why does being married mean you know about fonts? |
| 1:12:22 | She is completely irrational and I want to punch her in the face. |
| 1:18:39 | Is it wrong that I am still pondering how she did that hair extension trick. I don't know much about hair. |
| 1:24:28 | Ah, just what I needed to turn this film around... a wedding. |
| 1:29:00 | Her little sculptures. God, what does she see in that guy? |
| 1:34:35 | Bit of Honda product placement there. |
| 1:37:17 | Well, I like that, it's the first rational thing she's said in ages. |
| 1:38:28 | She's ruined his show! That's not romantic, that's evil. |
| 1:41:51 | That's Natasha Bedingfield again, isn't it! Is she actually employed by Hollywood? |
Thoughts
I'll admit, I wasn't too keen on watching this one, but we had a double movie night and I was already sitting down. Let's go!
Oh how I hated it. Granted, I wasn't exactly coming into it expecting great things but it was worse than I could have imagined. It was very similar to Bad Teacher, in respect of the fact that the lead character was completely hideous, so that I didn't think she deserved the happy ending. I didn't particularly want to watch her get it. There were just two redeeming moments, one with the My Fair Lady Mention - and Martin Freeman was fun - and the moment she pondered whether she shouldn't have just waited in his apartment. A fabulous bit of self-awareness, that the rest of the film was sadly lacking.
