What Someone Great lacks in originality it makes up for in relatability and charm, thanks in large part to the undeniable chemistry between its talented leads.

Netflix's romantic comedy Someone Great is extremely of this time, a sugar rush that adds a millennial gloss to genre tropes. Go to Full Review

A fluffy romp with a sobering truth: relationships and your twenties may end, but neither signals the end of the world. Go to Full Review
Cristina Escobar LatinaMedia.Co 06/26/2021
Fulfills and advances the promise of earlier, feminist shows, giving us a new set of women that better reflect what the world and New York actually look like. Go to Full Review
Cate Young Thirty, Flirty + Film 03/19/2021
What works about Someone Great is that it manages to separate those two meaningful kinds of relationships and highlights them without pitting them against each other. Go to Full Review

Lezleigh W. Nov 30 I did not enjoy this movie whatsoever. I feel like it had absolutely no plot at all. The only reason it gets a star is because of the songs played throughout the movie. Also because I love Gina Rodriguez. See more Jul 21 Boring. I honestly don't get why a lot of ppl like it. Throughout the movie nothing happens even if is supposed to be a movie about change. See more Jul 17 Amazing chemistry and a lot of fun See more Ginette A May 2 A well delivered break up movie, entertaining and funny, but it portrays greatly the roller coaster the main character is into. See more Sophie D Feb 15 What did I just watch (it’s not even over). chat, who produced this. who invested their money into it? The actors are like good (with an exception) but it just like- the script, the random fast motion, the zoom in on the weird boyfriend’s butt clench? I honestly just watched all of it to hate watch, like I got a bad vibe five minutes in. I am so sorry universe. I am usually not this negative or leave hate comments like this, but I just need to put this into the universe because holy freak what did i just watch… I am so sorry again </3 I seriously feel so baddddd but this is cathartic and part of my healing journey. Peace and love to those involved in the making of this movie, but encountering professional failure builds character. See more 12/09/2024 Amazing and refreshing so much emotions in one movie. Love how she’s grieving her relationship and how millennial it is. Great music. See more Read all reviews
