My review · Reviewed 04/15/2022

This movie is probably exactly what you thought it would be: a fairly familiar rom-com propped up a bit by the excellent chemistry between Slate and Day. I enjoyed it while it was on and forgot about it five minutes after I finished it. You can certainly do worse than this movie.
