Movie Haiku:Neil LaBute wrote this adaptation of his own play & did a very bad job of it. A writer about to be married for the first time travels about meeting-up with women from his past. Alas, the 90 minute runtime (likely very close to the play) is too stagey & episodic & Adam Brody in the lead has none of the charisma required for a heartbreaker. Not yet seen by Rich.
