Review of Love Hard

Love Hard (2021)
6/10
The "Wish" version of all romantic comedies...
12 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
It's hard to cheer on a character like Josh. If the roles were reversed, would we cheer on Natalie for catfishing some guy?

At its core, it's a wholesome and heartwarming tale. Natalie is struggling to find any dating world success on the swipe apps. Josh has good looks, he reads, he's articulate, he seems to be quite the catch.

That is until Natalie makes the trip of 2000 miles to meet him. Josh has been using his former elementary school friend, Tag, in his profile pictures. Natalie is crushed.

But since Tag lives in town, Josh and Natalie come to an agreement of her pretending to be boyfriend/girlfriend till after Christmas if Natalie can land the real life Tag with Josh's help.

It's wholesome in the end for how it all turns out. Josh is real and Tag seems fake as the story progresses. It's not the greatest film of the romance genre, and there was only one instance of laughing out loud for me. But it's a good time-passer. Characters are relatable. I could watch this every Christmas.
