The life of Abby is centered around the fast-paced days of being a successful sous-chef and her marriage to Matt, a loving husband. A sudden accident in the kitchen forces her to leave the job she loves, and worse, to forgo a dream promotion.

UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
bjarias Everyone gets screwed in this lackluster movie.. the lead actor.. the ex-boyfriend.. the husband.. an unborn child.. and ultimately, everyone viewing this tepid piece of whatever. Starts off, she has lots of free time on her hands, and she's bored. Subsequently she unexpectedly runs into an ex (that she had abruptly walked out on), and not batting an eyelash, starts up and continues a months long affair with him. And we're all left clueless what was so wrong with the seemingly very good-guy hubby. Then we have to guess her hormones subside, guilt takes over.. whatever, and she decides to dump the repeat lover (again), heads back to the arms of the totally clueless spouse... supposedly to live happily ever after. Of course, she never utters a word to him about her infidelity, and that the kid might not have been his. Yea.. she's a real sweetheart-keeper this one is. (Her pix on bing more exemplify the real Abby.) And seriously, could anyone possibly believe after being unceremoniously kicked to the curb.. now twice, that he's not going to hastily revenge out-her. Now that's the way it rightfully should have ended for her.. she deserves to have to crawl back for a third try.
sy-968-728030 The one star vote is being too generous.Between the excess hipster lifestyle represented in Silver Lake to the worst casting and plot in the history of movie-making - this film is the epitome of S * & T!I would have liked to end my review on this crap at the previous paragraph but IMDb won't let me. We have to have 10 lines - but because I hate hate this film so much it's so very important to me that it is heard... Jamie Pressly is so annoying - she really needs to just stick to her stereotype roles. I'm sorry - she just is not meant for drama. Her nose won't let her.Robin Thicke - no words - except - just STOP & that hair-do!!!I want to cry because it's really THAT BAD...
marie-bourguignon I decided to watch this movie with my boyfriend, since Vulture described the Robin Thicke's scenes as atrocious. It was.If you start watching this movie, you'll probably fall asleep before the end of the first half, but invite your friends and just laugh at how bad this movie is. You'll bond over the horrible dialogs. After all, "The Internet never lies!" says our friend Robin.I really adored the acting of the washing machine, I think she should have been on the poster. She was such an important part of the plot, and so likable - in comparison with the other characters. I will say that at the end of the movie, I wasn't sure how to answer to Abby's dilemma: should you pay the repairer 120$ ? if you have any idea of the average price of machine repair in the USA I'd be glad to know.Don't forget to listen carefully to what Thicke's says about PAYAYA (paella, right ?). I'll probably make a ring-tone out of his "Beans, rabbit, snails". Please Internet: do make plenty of Robin Thicke gifs ! I want to have a gif of his starring... or his answer when he's in the laundromat "...*laughs softly*... laundry".Behold the true master piece that is "Making the rules" ! (btw: why is it named "making the rules" ?)No seriously. Don't watch that. Or at least invite friends and drink some wine (with some payaya on the side).
aleetconstruction I don't normally write reviews but this movie deserved others to be warned - I wish I had been. This may possibly be the worst movie I have ever seen. I found myself praying I didn't have to watch her go through 9 months of pregnancy while her husband drilled their deck and she watered her flowers. I actually felt the acting was as bad as adult-entertainment movies, like the plot was that horrible, and the acting was atrocious. The only thing I was left wondering at the end of the movie was how this movie got by without Robin Thicke getting a massive "wtf man!! That just wasted an hour of my life!!" from someone like Kevin Hart? Consider yourself warned.
