About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a talky, globe-trotting relationship comedy-drama about messy adulthood and friendship, with a frank edge; Not for you if you dislike indecisive leads or long, soapier romantic tangles like in Priceless.
Pros: lively ensemble reunion; witty conversations; varied European settings | Cons: overlong and meandering; uneven tone; romance feels superficial
