Aaron Eckhart plays a character dealing with a midlife crisis where he comes off as rather pathetic and the jokes weren't funny. It goes from one awkward scene to another.
The plot is quite silly and doesn't make much sense. First his initial reaction then follow up reaction to his wife Elizabeth Banks cheating on him is rather bizarre and shows how weak he was. As well as Elizabeth Banks' character. She cheats on him with another man yet seems as if she doesn't care as she doesn't apologize and tries turning the blame on him (for using a spy camera in their bedroom). They seemed to remain close although he left to sleep at his brothers house. Everything remain relatively calm which seemed slightly unrealistic.
The scenes with Eckhart and his teenage student Logan Lerman started off okay then drifted off bizarrely. Then Jessica Alba's character enters and isn't exactly given much to work with. There were also several pointless swimming pool scenes that didn't amount to anything either.
Overall this film just reeks of desperation and Aaron Eckhart tries too hard in being funny. His haircut seemed to be of someone older wanting to seem younger. This is just a laugh free comedy and we see why it didn't make much at the box office.
