They Came Together is a 2014 American satirical romantic comedy film directed by David Wain and written by Wain and Michael Showalter.[2] The film stars Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler, with supporting roles from Cobie Smulders, Christopher Meloni, Bill Hader, Ellie Kemper, Melanie Lynskey, and Ed Helms.

Joel and Molly, over dinner with couple Kyle and Karen, recount their entire relationship. It is a parody of romantic comedies infused with Showalter and Wain's absurd approach.

The film had its world premiere at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival,[3] and was released theatrically (with a simultaneous release on iTunes) on June 27, 2014.[4]
