Spivak (2018)

Wally Spivak is an unpublished writer in his 40s, sharing a home with two other grown men. He, understandably, moves through life with a permanent scowl. On Valentine's day, his friends make the spur-of-the-moment decision to point the car (with Wally sleeping in the back seat) towards Vegas in order to pick up some lonely singles. Turns out that Wally's the only one who scores that night and it changes everything.

This is more of a fantasy than anything. He sleeps with a girl -- runs into that girl and her fiancee soon after -- becomes friends with them -- starts dating a Laker girl -- etc etc. I might have had more fun with this if Wally were, in any way, relatable. The best bits concerned the fiancee, who was simply lovely in his upbeat optimism.
