5/10
Maya Erskine plus one...
24 June 2020
I can see a lot of people liking this movie, especially if you live the rom com genre. I did like this film but i don't think its like great.

It has some jokes that landed with me, mainly from Maya Erskine. I think that was the main issue. This is a very uneven movie as Maya is a fire cracker. She is super funny and weird and brings such a strong personality to characters. Where as Jack Quaid was kinda blah for me. He plaid this character almost like a Joel McHale-type for me. It was like annoying idiot man. I don't know if i can blame him, maybe the script said to do that. I know a movie is unbalanced iv everyone is like crazy but he wasn't even like playing it "Normal". This character was really strange and unlikable. He is meant to be a ladies man? yet he needs help constantly in situations that we are told he should be fine. I don't know i just didn't like this character at all or how it was written. Also the scene where he sprays water out of his mouth in the pool like he is a fountain...what was that???

Its cute for the most part and pretty short so you could stick it on and have a cozy night in.
