Love Lake & Simon, but this film was awkward, forced & would have been worse if those two weren't extremely talented. Cute stroryline but script needed a massive overhaul. Kept waiting for it to get better. Never did.
Boy, you're not kidding. This was a massive disappointment.
I've liked any movie with Simon Peggy and my expectations were too high.
This was a mess, awful language, and why does every movie now have to show a gratuitous scene in restroom of opposite sex?
If I found a couple in the ladies room while I was trying to take care of business, I'd kick their asses out to next Tuesday. Please, I like my privacy.
or Lake talking to herself in the mirror? Or wait, why did Lake have to have a British accent in the first place? Didn't make or certainly break the film!
Glad someone agreed, but I'm a pretty hard sell. Can't figure out why people like the Big Bang Theory... I give it a try and feel I'm missing something.
The ending was decent and romantic and saved it, but just barely. The lead-up to it, the part that's supposed to put the "com" in rom-com, really fell flat. I didn't laugh once. Not once. For a screenwriter to have these two leads at his disposal - two genuinely talented people - and not be able to make it work is pretty amazing.

The screenwriter didn't 'have these two leads at HER disposal' (the screenwriter was female)
Scripts are generally written before the film is cast. Its the actors' job to make the script work/improve on the script.

I loved it! Maybe it's not a movie for wherever you are from, but I'm in Texas with my guns and pro-Trumper attitude, and I loved it. Simple little rom-com. How pleasant not to have to think about the coming civil war and martial law. :)
