A single woman takes the place of a stranger's blind date and finds the perfect man for her.

A 34-year old single woman, Nancy, hungover again, exhausted by the fruitless set-ups by her friends, travels up to London to toast another 10 years of her parents' successful marriage. She runs in with a 40-year old divorcee, Jack, who mistakes her for his 24-year old blind date. Nancy, deciding to go with it, happens to hop on the most chaotic yet hilarious journey of her life which neither of them will ever forget. There is drinking, competitive indoor sports, an old stalker classmate with a long-standing crush, lost divorce papers, lost hopes, and yeah, Jack finding out the truth. "Man Up" is a romantic comedy about taking chances, being yourself, making decisions, and rolling with the consequences.—Samuel Prongs

Meet Nancy (Lake Bell): 34, single, hungover, and exhausted by her well-meaning but clueless friends' continual matchmaking. 10 times bitten, 100 times shy, after an especially disastrous set-up at her friends' engagement party, Nancy is basically done with dating. She's reached the end of her rope, and is more than happy to hole up, seal up, and resign herself to a life alone.

That is until Jack (Simon Pegg) mistakes Nancy for his blind date under the clock at Waterloo Station, and she does the unthinkable and just goes with it. Because what if pretending to be someone else finally makes her man up, and become her painfully honest, awesomely unconventional, and slightly unstable true self?

Best just to let the evening unfold, roll with the consequences, and see if one unpredictable, complicated, rather unique night can bring these two messy souls together. Man Up is an honest, heartwarming screwball of a rom-com. A film about putting yourself out there, taking chances, and keeping a hold on that ever-diminishing glimmer of hope, no matter the shit life throws at you.
