Synopsis

Ally Darling is realizing she's a little lost in life. Her latest romance has just fizzled out, and she's just been fired from her marketing job. Then she reads an eye-opening magazine article that warns that 96 percent of women who've been with 20 or more lovers are unlikely to find a husband. Determined to turn her life around and prove the article wrong, Ally embarks on a mission to find the perfect mate from among her numerous ex-boyfriends.

mariondowning-427-469344 So the female reads a story in a magazine (always a credible source of research there) that tells her she won't be likely to get married if she's slept with more than 20 guys. So she tries to get married to one of the former guys she slept with for the sake of making it in under 21. Yet, the guy she ends up with slept with 300+ women before her and he's a great guy? Another movie telling women they're the s word if they sleep around, and it's OK for guys to do it.
mannuskyhigh OK let's get something straight. The film isn't great. The plot is quite simple. A woman has had a number of relationships and now wants to settle with one of them considering they must have gotten better with time. But things do not work out for her when she finds that most of them are either still douche-bags or not her worth. To help her in this cause is her neighbor Colin played by wonderful Chris Evans who plays another douche sleeping with a new woman everyday. When Ally played by Anna Farris rejects his advances, he ultimately realizes over that he has fallen for her and wants to settle with her and Guess what, the woman starts feeling the same and they end up happily. Quite a simple show BUT I do would say that this isn't that bad considering the criticism It has received. The film surely has its moments. The sad thing is the makers didn't invest much into the characters. This has been projected as a romantic comedy but unfortunately there's hardly romance between the leads and there's where the film goes wrong. I saw this film because of Chris Evans as he's my favorite actor. I hadn't seen a single of Anna Farris hence I didn't know about her.But the film is about her and not him. He plays her love interest and his screen time too is apparently shorter. But to compensate this, their chemistry is nice. Anna Farris is good in a couple of times but sometimes she goes over the top and too loud. Other characters are well etched and acted nicely. Special mention to Ally's mother - She is hilarious. Her dad and her friends are good too. Her Sister Daisy and her relationship with her lover is well etched. The feel of the film isn't bad at all. It's only few moments that do not leave an Impact which is why you feel bad.The biggest drawback is where Colin immediately falls for Ally. If a man's already sleeping with women everyday and if there's something that is influencing him in form of a woman IT would take time for him to change his ways but Chris falls for her in one day and has a heart change. OK Even if we consider this, It wasn't that affecting. However the scenes between them particularly the basketball scene and the others that follow are nicely pictured. Music is effective. Every song almost leaves an Impact and that really goes into the favor of the film. Special mention to Neon Lights that play at the end.The film's thought however is noble. Love's better than everything. Sex only gives you satisfaction till you realize the Importance of being with someone and spending time with them. The only wish if they Invested more into the subject. The film could have been really really awesome. But still it's good. Definitely a one time watch. My Pick scene from the film is when Anna and Chris are engaged in a brief fight. Their emotions of the characters truly come out in that.My rating 6/10
tiggeeazalea As a teenage viewer, I do suppose my review is biased to an extent as my tastes may not be seen as quite "refined" as critics or adults older than me, but overall, "What's Your Number?" is a movie I would definitely recommend to any fan of the genre. While it follows the premise of and shares the same predictability as most romantic comedies do, "What's Your Number?" achieves its purpose in a manner that ultimately can only be described as "cute". Although I have never been the biggest fan of romantic comedies beforehand and an extra star may have subconsciously been added to my review due to the presence of Chris Evans (whose fantastic body is on display throughout the movie), I can easily see this as a movie I'll go back to again and again in the future. The acting and storyline are obviously not the best (and why would a movie of it's genre be expected to be?), but are lovely to watch nevertheless. Charming, witty, and humorous, it took almost all of my ability to not give this film a 10/10 star-rating (and I still would if it weren't for my desire to appear credible!). At the heart of it all, despite my only motive for purchasing this movie originally being the fact that I get to see my absolute favorite actor on-screen for a little less than two hours, I am thoroughly satisfied with the entertaining night the movie provided. While the eye-candy certainly did a great amount to pull me in, "What's Your Number?" is a movie worth staying for.
Jeff-123 Half of a good movie. Started out really strong and fun and hilarious. Hitting the usual rom-com beats but with some extra rudeness in there, and Anna playing a funny and realistic person, even given the unusual conceit. Notable in that her friends were supportive and accepting, even when they found out the truth -- rather than turn them into shrikes and shrews, the gang of girls just made situational jokes and nobody got bent out of shape, and that was a nice touch. It went wrong right around at the basketball game. We knew they were getting closer, but suddenly he takes her out of the apartment and suddenly he's got access to the Garden? Painful. And then after that, even more, they jump in the water? The hell? The rest of it just veered right into the weeds -- stuff set up was paid off very weakly with pure stock dialogue and hackneyed beats. With a few pratfalls thrown in to keep it from pure torture, but still it was pretty bad. We just stuck with it to see how it ended. But we were laughing our asses off up until that basketball game. Surely the book didn't implode that bad...surely some producer stepped in and messed it up. Who knows. Anyway, a real shame. Your best bet -- watch it up to that point and then turn it off. It all works out the way you think it will, if you've seen ANY rom-coms in your life. :-)
