Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) have been together for ten years and, in that time, the intensity of their attraction to one another has dulled to the point where sex has almost become another household chore. One night, the couple decide to try and reignite their spark by filming themselves making love, which they swiftly come to regret when Jay's computer automatically uploads the video to his cloud network. Jay and Annie embark on a desperate containment operation in a bid to prevent their friends, family and work colleagues viewing the tape, but the internet is a tough force to control and, if they aren't willing to take extreme measures, the video may go viral.

Let it be known that this is not the best comedy starring Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel ever made. On the other hand, I can’t say that I could rate this with less than three stars. It’s just totally average, even though I’m very fond of these two actors.

It didn't work. I was having a decent time until the 40th minute, then came the boredom, clichés, uninteresting and stupid dialogues and typical American absurdity. Honestly, my mom and I were struggling not to turn it off. Had I seen this movie in the theatre I would have wanted my money back. 40%

Even the attempt to look shocking is lousy. It’s artificial and doesn’t work even as a commercial for iCloud. With just a couple of average jokes (the dog on a treadmill), all that the plastic Diaz and skinny Segel can manage is a strange self parody lesson about the meaning of family and marital relationships. P.S.: I could have killed that fat kid.

A typical silly American comedy of the present day. It’s quite an interesting premise that could have potential, but it all feels very dull, casual, and lacking any effort to at least somewhat surprise or even shock. A few shots of Cameron's backside and her peeking nipples might be okay, but what about the rest of the film? A classic morality tale where the actors talk too much. Jason Segel doesn't save it; the only one who somewhat saved it is Rob Corddry, who sticks to verbal humor, which suits him better.
