This movie was alright, it featured strong performances from the lead actors but ultimately ends up falling short of its potential.
It has a few chuckles throughout but plays out as more of a romantic drama than any form of an actual comedy. By trying to navigate between multiple genres, it loses potency in both.
Also, while Mary Elizabeth Winstead does an excellent job in her role, Nina is written as such a profoundly unlikeable character that it makes it somewhat difficult to empathize with her even after the big twist.
Common also does a great job with his role but his character comes across as more of a Dogged Nice Guy trope than a realistic depiction of a person.
