Movie Reviews: That Awkward Moment
The year is only a month old and we already have our first critically mauled A-list movie. That Awkward Moment has had some of the nastiest reviews of the year.
The New York Times called it "a vile, witless sex comedy," while the Los Angeles Times gets academic, saying that the film is about "how passing off misogyny for comedy has gotten so terribly passé, as insulting to the guys as to the women."
The film stars popular heartthrobs Zac Efron, Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller, so studio execs will be watching the box office results closely to see if audience members actually listen to the critics when their favorite stars are in a movie.
