Well i don't usually write reviews but seeing a movie like this get an IMDb score of 5.2 is frustrating to say the least.

you don't have to live in NYC to relate to James and the fact that we know nothing about his previous life makes it even easier. in fact we only know how he spends hid nights since he broke up with his girlfriend. he could be me or you or anyone.

He is a really handsome guy thus having lots of success with random girls he flirts. but this happens to be the problem, he gets trapped in superficial relationships and the pleasure of having sex. his ego is huge and seems unable to form any kind of spiritual connection.

his only way of dealing with the problems he faces is alcohol and women even when that's exactly the problem, he responds with even more women.

In general it's a great movie that shows exactly the vanity that overwhelms our world and how superficial and temporary human relationships can get. How alone you feel deep down trying to fill that void with sex and drugs! it's a 9 from me. maybe i am not that objective with this one but it's definitely 7++

As a single man and life long bachelor. I can relate with the movie's premise: of a man seeking companionship and adventure. James the main character goes from woman to woman, each with a set of complex offerings. Beautifully made this movie captures the ins and outs of dating and discovering new adventure in the big city. Nothing beats the companionship of a woman or new conquest. Love does comes at a price and so does adventure. This movie harps on the timeless quest of finding the perfect mate in an imperfect world.

It's very possible that many people will not relate to this movie but having lived a similar life in the past I can say that this one really hit close to home. It brilliantly captured the lifestyle and the feelings between various singles in NYC, with a very heavy emphasis on the man's point of view. Shiloh Fernandez being the man in this case, a role that he absolutely nailed.

The movie was just very well done overall. It could have been cheesy but instead had a sophisticated Indy feel and swiftly moved through the many different situations and relationships.

A very interesting part of the film is a not-so-subtle reference to 'Women', a 1978 novel written by Charles Bukowski. I'm only guessing here but it seemed pretty evident that writer Chadd Harbold was heavily influenced by this novel, and if that was the case he certainly did the novel justice. I'll certainly be checking out some of Harbold's other works.

Don't be discouraged by the low IMDb rating. This one is much better than the 5.5 it had at the time of this review and definitely worth the watch.
