It reminded me of a time when writers wrote jokes and actors delivered them. It provided the satisfaction of a cheeseburger. Never taking itself too seriously, it has more com than rom, sure, but the natural chemistry between Ana and Will keep the romantic plot spicy enough to hold our attention. The work place drama is Cinderella mixed with Devil Wears Prada, with a particularly funny supporting cast keeping the fun alive amid the chaos. Camila carries the film, and shows once again how much more she has to offer beyond Riverdale, and how much this genre could be her path to becoming a bonafide J-Lo / Jen Aniston type superstar. Overall, a fun relaxing watch, with some good laughs and some warm fuzzy feelings by the end.
