About this movie

Laurel (Kazan) has always been the odd wallflower, choosing to live at home with her father, while her glamorous identical twin, Audrey (Kazan), possesses the confidence and appeal to succeed in the big city. When tragedy strikes and Laurel is mistaken for her twin sister, she makes the impulsive decision to assume her sister's identity and become The Pretty One. As she eases into her new, independent existence, Laurel discovers that she's capable of accomplishments she had never before had dreamed of: excelling in a career, maintaining friendships and even finding love. Zoe Kazan (Ruby Sparks), Jake Johnson (TV's "New Girl") and Ron Livingston (Drinking Buddies) star in this quirky, comedic drama about family ties and second chances.

Well, I definitely thought this movie was cute. Zoe Kazan and Jake Johnson did a great job together. Though it was awkward in some parts, it was still good overall. LOVE IT!!!!

I had never heard of this movie until I saw it in the Google Play store and as soon as I watched the trailer I fell in love with this movie. The color in this film is amazing (I know it seems odd to comment on, but I loved the colors used throughout the film. It all fit together and pleased the eye like a painting). Zoe Kazan is absolutely wonderful in this, and the story is both heartwarming and tearjerking. The love story is wonderful as is the story of finding one's place in the world. I absolutely loved this movie, I can't say that enough. If you haven't heard of it, don't be afraid to give it a chance. Amazing!

Loved it. We all have been and felt that weird, inadequate and had not freaking idea on what to do with our life at some point; and even though growing older makes you have better life perspective, sometime under stressful circumstances we may feel that awkward and out of place all over again, like if we actually never get to be completely out of those "teenager" moments. Overall we also get over them and keep going with our lives, and that's what counts, at least for me.
