Simple premise that starts the movie - two couples who don't know each other have almost simultaneous breakups. In one case the girl dumps the guy, in the other the guy dumps the girl. The two "dumpees" meet quite accidentally and soon decide to cooperate. Each will get involved with the other's ex and do something to break up the new relationships so each can win back their lovers.
There are a few things annoying about the story and the characters, particularly Charlie Day's high-pitched raspy voice is extremely hard to listen to at times. But he and the other actors do fine jobs with the roles. It is pretty easy to predict where all this will end up but it gets there in an unpredictable way. Overall a very entertaining, lightweight comedy about relationships.
My wife and I watched it at home after dinner and a bottle of Zinfandel, streaming on Amazon Prime.
