This is a charming, fun spirited romantic comedy with some interesting characters. I have watched it three times now, once with my now X boyfriend who paid $100k on film school and has never made a movie. I was fortunate enough to meet the writer/director of this lower budget indie and ask a few questions. When my X found out that entire budget was less then half of what my boyfriend paid for school over two decades ago, he went crazy and posted at least three 1 star reviews. The Writer/Director also used his own money to finance this movie rather than buying an BMW X3 like my ex did. I am glad we broke up.
Is this movie a five star blockbuster? Not really. Is it better then the last movie I paid to see in the theater... 100%. I gave it five stars because it's good, probably four stars. I also wanted to counter the 1 star reviews.
The acting is good. The camera work, sound quality and all that stuff is on a professional level.. above something you'd see on made for cable movie, not as good as say "I Feel Pretty."
On the third viewing I actually picked up some jokes that I missed the first two times. I also picked up on a plot point that I also missed the first couple times I watched it. I hate not being able to reveal what I figured out. It's not like the Sixth Sense or something but when it hit me, it really hit me. Reading some of the other reviews (not by my X) I can see that they also didn't "get it" and watched the movie like I did the first time.
I don't know if I will watch it again, but I might.
