Can two serial cheaters get a second chance at love? After a one-night stand in college, New Yorkers Lainey and Jake meet by chance twelve years later and discover they each have the same problem: because of their monogamy-challenged ways, neither can maintain a relationship. Determined to stay friends despite their mutual attraction, they make a pact to keep it platonic, a deal that proves easier said than done.

AI Analysis
Sleeping with Other People succeeds in deconstructing romantic tropes by presenting psychologically messy characters. It avoids the sanitized morality of typical rom-coms, instead offering a sophisticated, postmodern look at human dysfunction and intimacy. However, the film's progressive psychological approach is undercut by a lack of demographic variety. The narrative remains largely homogeneous, failing to reflect the actual diversity of a metropolitan setting like New York. While it challenges gendered expectations and traditional morality, the absence of LGBTQ+ and diverse ethnic representation limits its overall impact and scope.
