The writing and direction by Ben Younger is crisp and insightful enough to prevail, and the performances are all very good.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Follows a familiar boy-meets-girl scenario, but Younger turns the routine into combustible fun.
A movie as weirdly titled as it is constructed, the romantic comedy Prime is proof that even the great Meryl Streep occasionally slips up in her acting choices.
Streep, beaming in her horn-rimmed glasses and spouting platitudes like 'Focus on the now, for now,' makes it all a treat.
A cut above the formulaic romances Hollywood typically grinds out.
