The lead male character is so boring! He was written to be dull, soft-spoken, unemotional, uninteresting, and unfunny. He has all of the charisma of a pet rock. His interactions with the rest of the characters almost feel unhuman -- like a robot with bad AI guiding its actions.
The lead female character was more interesting, but I just couldn't see what she saw in him. He is obviously good looking, but even the most shallow person needs more than that from a relationship. In real life, I think she would be bored by him halfway through the first date, though her best friend in the movie claimed they had sparks and chemistry. They sure kept those hidden from us.
And that's the problem with the movie. It's a relationship movie where the relationship has no fire to it.
