Fred (Noah Bean) spends an entire day with Mindy (Rachel Boston), his latest one-night stand, after a night of unprotected sex to make sure that she takes both doses of the morning-after pill.

Does the title refer to contraception? Or one of this sort-of comedy's three leads? It's a toss-up; everyone involved is just so irritating.

Rated: 1.5/4

This might be more entertaining if any of the three main characters were at all likable.

Rated: 2/5

While their story is feather-light, Khoury and his actors have each type down perfectly.

Writer-director J.C. Khoury has sensibility and a refreshing amount of sense, too.

Film Journal International

A surprising delight from start to finish, this is one rom-com with serious, and very funny, nerve.

Brent Simon

Shockya.com

A recognizably human rom-com, reflective of the realities of the twenty- and even early-thirtysomething dating scene, in which people mean well but often find their attempts at monogamy tested in unexpected ways.

Rated: B

Boring movie with stupid, manipulative and bland characters. It's very difficult to feel empathy for anyone so asinine. Fred has no balls. Mindy (and her family) is a lunatic. And, in the end you're left hanging... and you don't care.
