After countless lonely nights over a bottle of wine and "The Bachelor", the Seattle longtime friends, Kate, a high school English teacher, and Meg, an ambitious cosmetics saleswoman, are beginning to realise that they are going through a rough patch. To take a break, the pair will soon find themselves on an impromptu flight to Fort Lauderdale, seated next to the handsome blonde Ryan who is on his way to a friend's wedding. All of a sudden, the two best friends will get sucked into a destructive spiral of relentless competition and cut-throat one-upmanship with Ryan as the prize, especially when a Category 4 hurricane reroutes their flight to a St. Louis layover. They say all is fair in love and war; however, is Ryan worthy of Meg and Kate's years of friendship?
Leave your thoughts about The Layover.
| Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersSecond-tier airline safety videos are more entertaining than this fourth-rate comedy. Flight attendants on Southwest’s less-traveled routes are far funnier than the cast here. Watching a lonely suitcase circle a baggage claim conveyor belt is more diverting. |
| Mark Reviews MoviesMark DujsikAt the last minute, The Layover tries to become about female empowerment, but it would have to actually like women for that to work. |
| RogerEbert.comMatt Zoller SeitzMaybe the heart of the problem is that Kate and Meg's behavior doesn't track with the practical realities of lifelong, functioning friendship between (most) women as experienced by...well, any functioning adult who lives in the world. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperYes, it is a movie. But just barely so. I’d say it’s more like an excruciating, embarrassing, profoundly unfunny, poorly shot and astonishingly tone-deaf screech-fest featuring some of the least charismatic performances this side of one of those dreadful “reality” shows. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliAn unpleasant, unwatchable example of why people no longer love romantic comedies. |
| Birth.Movies.Death.Phil Nobile Jr.This film's biggest frenemy remains its script. The hateful competition plot throws very few curveballs, and the big laughs come too infrequently. |
| Common Sense MediaBarbara ShulgasserGirlfriends fight over cute guy, have sex, and drink. |
| New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe movie’s notion of fun comes to involve an unclean rest stop, slipped pills and an eminently foreseeable conclusion. |
| Slant MagazineDerek SmithWilliam H. Macy's The Layover was clearly conceived and written by men who have no interest in approaching female friendships with any degree of complexity, curiosity, or respect. |
| Under the RadarMegan MoffatThe Layover is not only tedious, but clueless when it comes to how women interact with each other. |
