Overeducated and underemployed, 28-year-old Megan (Keira Knightley) is in the throes of a quarter-life crisis. Squarely into adulthood with no career prospects, no particular motivation to think about her future, and no one to relate to, Megan is comfortable lagging a few steps behind while her friends check off milestones and celebrate their new grown-up status. When her high-school sweetheart (Mark Webber) proposes, Megan panics and - given an unexpected opportunity to escape for a week - hides out in the home of her new friend, 16-year old Annika (Chloë Grace Moretz) and Annika's world-weary single dad Craig (Sam Rockwell). Director Lynn Shelton crafts a sweet, romantic coming-of-age comedy about three people who find their lives intertwined in the most unconventional way as they make their way through the imperfect realities of modern-day life.

Afterward, where the film ultimately led, it all seemed a bit lengthy to me, as there wasn't a factual resolution to what Keira's character had been dealing with all along. However, in terms of relationships, it's interesting, and hearing Keira without an accent is also quite new. The accent suits her much better. Chloë once again only got minimal acting space, but in terms of time, she had quite a lot of presence elsewhere. Rockwell impressed me a lot.

At first, Keira Knightley portrays a bit of a crazy girl of whom I didn’t know what to think at first glance. Later, she straightened herself up a bit and so did the movie, which subsequently became a typical American independent drama about a person’s life. It wasn’t bad but at the same time, it didn’t blow me away. However, I was surprised that they managed to sign such huge actors for this premise. But it is clear that not even these actors can salvage an otherwise mediocre script.
