Absolutely awful. The plot makes no sense and careens from one scene to another without bothering to explain how or why it got there, Hathaway is a wet mop with no charisma, the ending pretty much smashes the half-assed “yay women” marketing conceit to bits, and all of the characters are either paper-thin plot devices or exceedingly unlikeable caricatures without a single redeeming quality among them.
It’s an absolute disaster and the worst movie I’ve seen in a theatre since The Happening. This is a comedy in name only. I chuckled at a few of Rebel Wilson’s lines (“I’m salad-intolerant” to a waiter) and nothing else. One review said they laughed out loud at a wordplay joke involving a hotel room so I’ll save you the $17: we briefly see a placard on the door of a hotel room in France that says “Suite Caroline.” That’s it. That’s the joke. The Hustle, everyone!
