Dos tórtolos

It's a fun, easy watch with a couple good laughs sprinkled in. It's one of those movies we've all seen dozens of times, and there's a certain mindless comfort that comes with movies like this.

As long as you aren't looking for anything groundbreaking, and don't take it too seriously, this is an enjoyable popcorn movie.

The best thing about this film is the witty dialogue and the repore between the two leads. It reminded me a bit of the old Thin Man films. It's a pleasant escape from these dark times and offers some much needed laughter.

When I saw Kumail Nanjianis name in the cast I knew I would have a good time watching this comedy. I don't know if I can see him in anything else than a comedy and that's fine. He just has that kind of funny face. Stuber was the last movie I enjoyed from him and now it will be The Lovebirds. Don't expect anything too serious though, it's just a mild rom-com with a little crime investigation to spice it up, but there are enough funny moments to keep you entertained. The two main characters are played by Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani, and it works good. The Lovebirds isn't great cinema, but it doesn't pretend to be, it's just a good moment of easy comedy, a genre that we all need at some point.

I understand if you watch this and don't like it. Tastes differ and that is more than ok. What I don't get is, calling this boring. You can call this a full range of things, but boring? Interesting choice to describe, but ultimately you'll lose my respect and your opinion may be void to me. The movie starts off like a romantic comedy and it really looked like it for some time. If it continued like that, I'd understand if you thought or felt this was boring. But it didn't ... it changes pace and goes places I didn't expect it to go.

Then again, I never watch trailers, so I guess if you watch the trailer and then the movie, maybe you are able to think or feel this is boring. Don't blame the movie though, that really gives it its best shot. Not to mention the very charismatic leads. Both of which are great. Now overall the comedy is silly and even when there is "danger" there is always a whiff of lightness to it. Now that might be something you may really have issues with - be aware of that, if you consider watching this. It can be great fun, if it is your cup of tea!

This is a fun Friday night at home with your loved one and a bowl of popcorn.

This is pretty by the numbers, but everyone involved is clearly having a great time so just hop on and join the ride.

Some of it is even relatable. Issa and Kumail at first seem like an awkward pairing, but once the story skips 4 years they just have a great chemistry that keeps you hooked for the fun but brief 86 minutes.
