Went in not expecting much, turned out to have a pretty good time. Sydney Sweeney (Bea) and Glen Powell (Ben) star in this film. After a terrific first date, Bea and Ben's relationship turn stone cold after a misunderstanding. They are reunited at a wedding in Australia and are forced to pretend to be a couple in order to serve each's needs.
Sydney and Glen's chemistry is just off the charts here. Both are charming and charismatic. They portray their characters beautifully along with the rest of the cast. There are some really funny scenes here, but don't shy away from being more serious at times. They do a good job in setting you in the story by giving room for most of the characters to have their moments.
Australia is captured beautifully. The mix of nature, the sea and the city Sydney is great. Another pro for me is their choice of song, you know what song I am talking about. "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield sets the mood of the film perfectly here. In all honesty, it's just a refreshing watch. I think I enjoyed it more because I wasn't expecting anything special.
This film runs at 1 hour and 43 minutes and it overall captures the essence of what a good romcom needs to have. The balance between comedy and drama, the rooting for the characters and most importantly, the chemistry. This film has all of it.
