Storyline

There's a right way to be single, a wrong way to be single, and then...there's Alice. And Robin. Lucy. Meg. Tom. David. New York City is full of lonely hearts seeking the right match, be it a love connection, a hook-up, or something in the middle. And somewhere between the teasing texts and one-night stands, what these unmarrieds all have in common is the need to learn how to be single in a world filled with ever-evolving definitions of love. Sleeping around in the city that never sleeps was never so much fun.

This movie may not be the guide to finding your soul mate or staying single
18 February 2016 | by (Australia) – See all my reviews

If you follow the life lessons from "How To Be Single" you could possibly pick up some sexually transmitted disease and most definitely will remain single for the rest of your natural born life. Essentially this is a chick flick and no male has any right to challenge it's view point, but I will. Why are males always represented as bastards? We are simple creatures with simple needs not like you complex females. We need good loving, good company and good food. End of story. For all of the the above we will remain loyal obedient creatures for life, a bit like your dog. Dakota Johnson, Rebel Wilson, Leslie Mann and Alison Brie form an unofficial lonely hearts club in New York City...just looking for Mr Right and often sleeping with Mr Wrong. The message from this movie is supposedly that we need to learn how to be single in a world filled with ever-evolving definitions of love...however the main characters never seem fulfilled until they have met their soul mate after bedding hundreds of potential candidates. How To Be Single is at times a funny movie mainly thanks to the Aussie one woman invasion force of Rebel. Some of you may find too many home truths in this film. If you like Sex and the City, but hated 50 Shades this may be for you. Did I mention there is a lot of sleeping around in the city that never sleeps as Starship once sang. In fact I doubt 24 hours goes past when any of these characters are not in some type of relationship. If you're really looking for a guide to the single life this ain't it, but it could be a fun date movie with no sport involved. Personal Highlight: the sauna scene
