The Perfect Find

I really enjoy Tia Williams as an author, but this film was a terrible expression of her talents.

The leads didn't have chemistry and there were many underdeveloped themes. My biggest disappointment with this movie is that the editing was awful. I rewound the movie about 10 minutes in because I thought I missed the opening scene where they actually provide context to the the main story line. The movie is disjointed. It's 30 or so random scenes that don't flow together rather than a movie.

Beautiful actors, great wardrobe, and a good soundtrack don't overcome the glaring faults with this film.

I was excited to see a Gabriel Union movie as she brings so much charm and warmth to the characters she plays but I have no idea what I just watched.

There was no chemistry between the leads, felt as friends at most. There was no flow in the movie, it felt like they were trying to check off boxes with requirements in how to put a movie together.

The characters themselves were made into an exaggerated version of whatever personality they were supposed to be.

I can safely assume that they did not do the book justice and I haven't even read it.

Can't recommend this unless you feel like you have some time to waste.

As soon as I saw the lead actress I knew she'll be playing her usual role. A high powered boss chick struggling with falling in love, blah blah. Beautiful people but so lack lustre. The guest appearance from a washed up rapper and dreadful acting from the YouTuber made it so cringeworthy. It was nice seeing the legendary Janet Hubert and that's it.

I liked was the throwback music from the likes of Sweet Sable who was on the Above the Rim soundtrack and the few guest appearances from several celebrities and of course the comedian Godfrey.

Other than that, I absolutely lost interest. It became boring.

This movie is a cute rom-com. It is based on a book that I really enjoyed. It feels like a Hallmark movie and is a little cheesy, but overall still enjoyable. The soundtrack and fashion in it were both great. It is a nice feel-good movie. This movie had a couple of big name stars, but it didn't feel as well done as it could have been. This sometimes happens with romantic comedies or movies based on books. It was an enjoyable movie, but it just was not great. I don't think I would probably watch it again, but I did not regret watching it once. I remembered the story from the book and felt they could've done more with it.

The cinematography was decent but it main characters had zero chemistry. I don't think that either of them worked. It had poor editing which made it disjointed at times; it was very annoying like what was the plot again? I think it all came downhill from the scene how they first met. I was like what?

I had to rewind several times and once it was over I said I'll start from the beginning and try to better understand why after watching the entire movie I felt weary and disappointed. I'm sure at all what to make of it; I listened to the audiobook long before. The audiobook had great narration but some parts were not believable like the movie. I didn't believe they were in love. I didn't believe that. She was heartbroken from the other relationship. I didn't even believe the male main character was the son of her boss. I found myself wondering what two people would pull off this film than those two.

It wasn't romantic at all. I wish I could think of more good things to say. The entire movie just didn't come to life.
