Richard Cooper (Chris Rock) is a comfortable middle manager banker. But his marriage is running in problems. He doesn't have sex with his wife Brenda (Gina Torres) anymore, and they are fighting over it. Then a sexy past acquaintance Nikki (Kerry Washington) re-enters in his life and turns it upside down.
I am a little shocked that the screenplay was written by Chris Rock, and Louis C.K. I didn't find any of it funny. It may have been too much for Chris Rock to write, direct, and star in this. First Chris Rock look horrible with the stache. The narration is annoying. But more importantly, the morality of this movie is too awkward. Chris and Louis are obviously trying to say something profound about marriage and life. It may have been a great 10 minute stand-up, but it doesn't make good rom-com. I won't spoil the ending, but it's less about love and more about fear.
