But the lead actresses are both smokeshows so it wasn’t a total waste of time.

I thought it was kind of a fun movie as I laughed more than I do watching most comedies these days. I don't think it was supposed to be overly serious hence the hokey ending. Maybe a little overambitious as the director was trying to blend too many genres into one movie but Kendrick and Lively kind of take the material and make it work.
