Anne Brodie What She Said There are lots of sighs, eye rolls, and woe-is-me stuff which drove me bananas but let’s face it – this isn’t heading to the Oscars. Jul 19, 2022 Full Review Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net It mostly works because Brenda Song and Aaron O’Connell are charming and have decent chemistry. Rated: 6/10 Jul 19, 2022 Full Review Radhika Menon Decider It’s cheesy, which isn’t a fault on its own, but doesn’t back itself up with the heart it thinks it’s delivering. Jul 19, 2022 Full Review Jennifer Green Common Sense Media You've Got Mail for the texting age but with a fraction of the charm or emotion of the original, this San Francisco-set romance disappoints. Rated: 2/5 Jul 19, 2022 Full Review Kevin Carr Fat Guys at the Movies The story is overused by a mile and there are an absurd number of plot holes, this is really made for fans of harmless and mindless romances. Rated: 1.5/4 Jul 15, 2022 Full Review Noah Berlatsky Wealth of Geeks Peter Sullivan’s tepid Amazon rom-com Love Accidentally has neither spark nor wit nor chemistry. The lack of genius and inspiration isn’t fun to watch, even for fans of frothy rom-coms such as myself. Jul 15, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Jalissa G I enjoyed this movie. I'm not sure why the ratings are so low, but this is a good find, and great watch. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/23 Full Review B W This is the plot of the Jimmy Stewart movie "Shop around the Corner " and that was made into "You've Got Mail" I think it is sweet and a solid plot Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Basically a hallmark comercial 1.4 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/12/22 Full Review Audience Member It was a great movie. It's started playing after something else I was watching and kept me captivated the whole time . I wish there was a part two because I'm invested in the relationship ugh Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review tom m Okay, but not great. The dialogue and acting was a bit stiff and sometimes melodramatic ... trying too hard and missing the mark. Pretty predictable story. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member IN A NUTSHELL: Freevee is an ad-supported movie streaming service by Amazon. This disappointing rom-com was directed by Peter Sullivan and written by Robert Dean Klein. THINGS I LIKED: I had never seen either of the good-looking lead actors in anything before: Brenda Song and Aaron O'Connell. I love it when movies talk about other movies. Sense and Sensibility is even quoted in this flick, although another character calls it "Chick Lit". The opening credits are energetic and quickly get you in the mood for a rom-com. The movie is clean with no profanity and sex scenes. THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: There's absolutely zero chemistry between the leads. Both of their personalities are super self-absorbed and annoying, making it difficult to want to root for them. Super cliched with extremely predictable plot and dialogue. The workplace bickering is exhausting. A lot of bad acting moments. The cheesy music is often overbearing. I like Denise Richards, so I was sad to see her mess with her beautiful face with plastic surgery. Are baggy clothes coming back? I was surprised to see Brenda Song in such old-fashioned clothing. Was it intended for her to look like a bad dresser? Because the main character's name is Alexa, my voice assistant went off in the room every time someone said her name. ha ha So many hair extensions, Botox, and fake eyelashes. It drives me nuts when female characters in movies go to bed with tons of makeup still on. It's supposed to be a comedy but there really isn't much humor. How is it the female character lives in a gorgeous, expensive house, yet the other successful sales guy in the company, the lead male character, has a dumpy-looking kitchen and eats Hot Pockets? Ultimately, the movie has no magic and will be instantly unforgettable. TIPS FOR PARENTS: Kids will be completely bored. Lots of alcohol. We see a shirtless man. No sex scenes. No profanity. THEMES: Competition Relationships Break-ups Texting Communication You can see the full review on the Movie Review Mom YouTube channel. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
