Playing It Cool pits Chris Evans and Michelle Monaghan's easy chemistry against a screenplay that tries too hard to be quirky and clever, and the results are disappointingly lukewarm.

Only the really strong cast, including great chemistry between the leads, keeps "Playing It Cool" from totally derailing. May 8, 2015 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Screenwriters Chris Shafer and Paul Vicknair's script feels like a first draft that was written in one night as they got pumped up on Red Bull and speed-watched Netflix. May 8, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

You know you're in trouble when almost every character is given a name except the two leads. May 7, 2015 | Full Review…

Proceeding with a strained quirkiness that infects much more than the names of its main characters, this first feature by Justin Reardon is a paean to the kind of narcissism that sucks the air out of every scene. May 7, 2015 | Full Review…

A broad romantic comedy that submits the genre to such a rigorous self-examination it nearly tips over into parody - which would have been a good thing. May 7, 2015 | Full Review…

Proving that its chosen genre is best when its tropes are treated with a balance of sincere sweetness and wink-wink absurdity, Playing It Cool thrives through sheer liveliness, as well as the chemistry of its perfectly paired stars ... May 5, 2015 | Full Review…

An adorable cast cannot save this gimmicky, romantically lacking rom-com. Jun 28, 2018 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

'Playing it Cool' is disappointing not because it's unlike any other romantic comedy, but because it tries not to be one and fails spectacularly. [Full review in Spanish] Feb 1, 2018 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Worst of all, though, is its wholesale waste of an insanely talented cast - and not just Evans and Monaghan... I enjoy every last one of them, but not like this. Dear god, not like this. Dec 18, 2015 | Rating: 1/5

Far from playing it cool, the filmmakers are trying way too hard to look cool, and so they achieve the opposite. Aug 14, 2015 | Full Review…
