Two romantic burnouts meet at a wedding and almost hook up in the coatroom before putting the brakes on. They agree to exchange candid confessions about their pasts on the off chance that this might be the real thing.
Firstly Lucy Hale and Nat Wolff, who play Jane and Will, have what many others are calling 'chemistry'. I say, they are both just putting in fine performances. I was really invested in the characters as for once they weren't a 'forced' couple to fit a woke ideology, and they weren't an idealistic couple that no-one could relate to. They were the epitome of a genuine couple in everything they did.
Sadly the RomCom genre has to have a breakup before the heroes get together and this was no different. But at least they did get back together without sleeping with someone else while on a break, Ross and Rachel style.
There's a lot said in the descriptions of their past lives and so I think the film might resonate with many people as most of us have been through at least one of the situations mentioned.
We're all human and we're all fallible and that's part of the dating and marriage scene. But it's nice to think there can be a happy ever after and the golden rule -as they eloquently state at the end- is to keep talking to one anther and figure it out.
Typically mushy in parts and the brass band at the end really took the edge off the ending scene for me. It sounded more like a military movie than anything.
Nevertheless I enjoyed it and I give it my normal 6 stars. If you like RomComs I think you will like this one.
