Third wheel
Predictable and unfunny
There seems to be this weird sub genre in adult comedies that I'll call "bored couple wants to spice things up", and it always inevitably plays out the same: A seemingly "normal" couple with a bored sex life attempt to spice things up by bringing in "a 3rd", so to speak, and nothing works out as planned in the end.
These films always play out the same way: Their end-goal becomes increasingly difficult due to unseen comedic forces until the pursuit itself impacts their relationship. The couple "learn things about each other" and decide their original quest was a bad idea. Roll credits.
That's not to say these films can't be good, it's all about the quality of the jokes during "the pursuit" that decides that. Unfortunately in this film the jokes fall flat, I'm not sure I came close to laughing the entire time. Also, there was character behavior that was really cliched in an annoying way.
For example, the character played by Lucy Hale was about as unrealistic of a portrayal of a human being as I think I've ever seen. Humans don't act that way.
Ultimately though the film fails because it is just a collection of unfunny skits loosely tied together, and "sex comedies" with no actual sex or nudity are just a tease, and nobody likes a tease.
