“Scrambled” (** out of four) was a thinly conceived comedy about a thirty-something (Yvonne Strahovski) who becomes increasingly disillusioned with her life and being an eternal bridesmaid and decides to freeze her eggs but this leads her onto a journey of self-discovery that results in clashes with her dying father (Clancy Brown) and the multiple men (Andrew Santino, Michael Welch, and others) in her life. Spirited performance from Strahovski gives this maximum mileage but film doesn’t have enough steam, story, or laughs to keep it afloat for feature length. This is one comedy idea that remained in infancy stage and never grew beyond that.
