Mistakenly convinced that cuteness can compensate for a lack of basic believability, The Right Kind Of Wrong squanders its engaging leads and cheerful joviality with a plot of stupefying senselessness.

The Right Kind of Wrong is the kind of comedy that asks an audience to find borderline-stalking behavior charming.
