When I heard about this movie, I had mixed feelings. I love Brittany Snow, but I don't usually like movies that are all about casual sex. I also didn't want to see Brittany degrade herself. However, I finally got around to watching it, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, and I didn't walk away thinking one of my favorite actors sold herself out for money. Honestly, I wish I hadn't dragged my feet on this one. (It is also probably more like a 7 or an 8. I just gave it a ten because I felt the low rating was unfair).
Hooking Up follows Darla Bean (Brittany Snow), a recovering sex addict who is in a quarter-life crisis, as she is about to lose her job. At the same time, Baily finds out that he has testicular cancer. Darla convinces Baily to take a road trip with her that forces them to get intimate with their issues. I won't give anything away, but I will say I was glad it wasn't all about sex, and it was needlessly crude. It was also refreshing to see a film treat sex addiction as a real thing and not just a punchline for a joke.
Brittany Snow's performance was amazing. She managed to make Darla a surprisingly deep character who was both funny and tragic. Sam Richardson also gave a great performance. I really related to his character, and he actually had really great chemistry with Brittany Snow, which is rare. It's not Pitch Perfect, and Darla is defiantly not Chloe. But Brittany Snow's performance plus a cute script is what really sold me on this movie. All I will say is go in with an open mind, and you might be suppressed. :)
