My wife was super excited about this one and I likely wouldn’t have seen it otherwise. I kept thinking, “This could have been so good.”, but it just wasn’t. Contrived, unimaginative, formulaic, and just a little too mean-spirited. But it did have a very redemptive ending despite all the efforts of some very broken parents. I reserved my opinion thinking that I was just expecting too much from a traditional ROMCOM, but turns out my wife was pretty disappointed also. But at 88% Rotten Tomatoes, apparently, we were in the minority. You may love this one. We didn’t.
