Featured reviews
I wouldn't think I'd like it so much because it's a kinda cheesy rom-com but it made me feel good. Might be about the holidays. There were some hilarious moments too. Definitely worth watching.
Some of the critic reviews on this are way too harsh. The clearly don't know the genre well. My sister and I watch a LOT of sappy Christmas romances. I mean a lot. And many of them are just downright awful, so our bar is admittedly low. This one was actually a really good time and we quite liked it. The chemistry is there with the very likable leads. They both brought a lot of wit to a script that was admittedly awkward and stupid at times (though it had its moments). Luke Bracey in particular was very fun to watch.We laughed ourselves crying a few times, and overall we really enjoyed the film. Critics need to lighten up.
The chemistry between the two leads is so great. They are very convincing as lovers, which makes it particularly enjoyable to watch.
It is no Richard Curtis film (e.g., Notting Hill, Love Actually) but a pretty good romantic comedy nonetheless. The acting was good; Emma Roberts was good and so was the supporting cast. The storyline was what I expected but it kept me engaged thru out, and I even shedded a tear or two during the last scene. If you are looking for 'depth' you should probably choose another genre of film. Though, to be fair, the film does touch on a very important issue facing many Western democracies today, that is, loneliness. But this film will cheer you up for 90 minutes at least.
I haven't seen a good comedy romance in a while, yes it is cheesy but sometimes we just need these movies you know the end, but it was original and it was funny and romance, so i do recommend it .

- TriviaIn the early days of this movie's release on Netflix, the Halloween party sequence featuring a character dressed up as a big black cat (and calling himself Black Panther (2018)) had several speaking lines referring to Chadwick Boseman. Sadly, Boseman passed away in 2020 just prior to the movie's release in October 2020. Following his death, the lines referring to Boseman seem to have been edited out and/or recorded over, though in a few instances the original lines still appeared in the closed captioning during the scene.
