Trailer Synopsis Cast

College "frenemies" Lauren and Katie move in together after losing a relationship and rent control, respectively. Sharing Katie's late grandmother's apartment in New York City, the girls bicker with each other until one fateful night, when Katie's noisy bedroom activities make Lauren barge in and discover a dirty little secret. This revelation brings them closer together, and Lauren (the brains) and Katie (the talent) concoct a wildly successful business venture. As profits swell, the girls reevaluate their hopes and dreams and realize that just because someone pees in your hair in college doesn't mean she won't be your best friend 10 years later.

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Two seemingly completely different girls, who hate each other since college, by (un)happy circumstances become roommates and start their own hotline agency. Anything more than this would be spoilers. Lauren Miller-Rogen and Ari Graynor are really charismatic and you'll fall in love with them from the beginning. Movie starts quite boring and develops into mediocre comedy, but near the end I was laughing out-loud and because of it, although movie overall doesn't deserve it, I'll rate it 7/10

In Manhattan, the nerd aspirant editor Lauren Powell (Lauren Anne Miller) is dumped by her boyfriend Charlie (James Wolk) that is expatriated to Rome. Meanwhile, the manicure Katie Steele (Ari Graynor) can not afford the raise in the rent of her apartment at the Gramercy Park. Their common gay friend Jesse (Justin Long) brings Lauren to share the apartment with Katie, but they are college enemies and have difficulties to accept each other. Katie also works in a phone sex line but her income is very low. When Lauren loses her lousy job and is not accepted in a publishing house, she decides to use her knowledge to make a profitable business in sex for Katie and herself. But when Lauren's parents unexpectedly appear in the apartment, their friendship is tested. "For a Good Time, Call..." is an uneven comedy, funny in certain moments and lame in others. The religious fanatic in very unfunny; the slut Katie being a virgin is something ridiculous. But there are many scenes that make laugh. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Para se Divertir, Ligue..." ("For a Good Time, Call...")Note: On 21 July 2016, I saw this film again.

"Hello world for a good time call 1-900-mmm-hmmm." Lauren (Miller) & Katie (Graynor) are both at a rough patch. Lauren's boyfriend is moving to Europe and she lost her job, Katie can't make enough to stay in her apartment so their mutual friend decides it's time they move in together. When they meet they remember they hate each other and it becomes tense, until they find a way to make more money then they ever dreamed of. The preview to this movie made it look very funny to me and I was excited about watching this. The cameos were great and the movie was funny but it was a little more girlie then I was expecting. This is more then a movie about phone sex, its about friendship and being true to yourself. As cheesy as that sounds watch it and you will see what I mean. While there are some pretty racy things in this it's nothing over the top so don't expect a soft-core type movie. Overall, not as funny as I was expecting but still funny and worth seeing. I give it a B.

I had to give 10 this movie, though it is not the most hilarious comedy I have every seen but I'm shocked it got only 5,6 average. This was certainly the funniest comedy far I have seen this year. After the trailer I had mixed feelings: it could go reeeal wrong. But fortunately I hadn't. It was fun from the beginning to the end, not a moment when I wanted to "hang up". The not so well-known (first time I saw them) girls acted brilliantly, the situations and dialogues were fresh, realistic. I also loved Justin Long's part, he was great, too. On the whole: have a nice time and watch it, though not alone....I made this mistake and I really missed a girlfriend to giggle with - as this movie is not only about sex, laughing but also some new-found feeling of deep friendship. Love it!
