Carey-Ann Pawsey Orca Sound It is always a pleasant surprise when a filmmaker decides to make a romantic comedy in which the focal points are middle-aged people. Rated: 3/5 Feb 18, 2022 Full Review Nathaniel Muir AIPT It is always nice to see a romantic comedy that is wiling to go beyond the confines of twenty and thirty somethings. There is a lot to like about the film, though odd pacing and a lack of emotional impact are noticeable. Feb 8, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Jeremy L Fabulous acting. Solid entertainment. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review b It's listed as a delightful comedy. Nope. It's a clunky compilation of a parallel of Romeo and Juliet with The Office style side interviews. The cast is very good but it completely fails to be a comedic tragedy or a dramatic comedy because it doesn't commit to either. The real tragedy is that they could have made a really great movie but you end up frustrated and angry at everyone for messing up their own lives. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews
