This movie comes off as something the studio had in mind to package and sell as a romantic comedy, when in actuality it tackles much deeper issues and themes. By the end of the viewing what I had expected to be an affair full of predictable ups and downs with the familiar "Will they, won't they?" tropes turned out to be a journey of nihilistic existentialism that bordered on becoming a really good philosophical film. Had the filmmakers and studios decided to lean more heavily into the artistic side of this movie it could have very well been another Mr. Nobody, which similarly explored deep philosophical questions while bringing us on a journey of two star crossed lovers who were destined to be together, but had to go through hell and back to get there.
A surprising turn of events that turned something that promised a generic experience into something with substance!

I have to agree with other reviewers.. This is not a rom-com. Could be a dark comedy... But it is a (romatic?) drama. And it delivers.
I can see the hate on most of the low rated reviews, not sure if towards Pete or Kaley. Looks like those viewers are expecting to chuckle with anything with Pete on it. (or Kaley for that matter).
Some clearly dont event understand depression.
Yes, there is a time loop here (not a spoiler), but thats not even the point of the movie. If you are trying to make sense of that, you are watching the wrong kind of movie.
Most of us have suffered heartache from broken relationships. Some of us, Feeling alone. And some desperation to fit in a world that doesnt understand us.
You should watch this movie knowing it is an exploration of dark emotions. It might trigger you on some topics, but im almost positive you will end with an uplifting sensation.
And for those complaining of making sense... Time travel never makes sense. Thats a fact.

Please ignore the bad ratings. This movie is falsly advertised and promoted as a romcom. But in fact it's a heartfelt dramedy about struggling with love because of emotional trauma. And How to Deal with it. So it's not what you would expect regarding the trailer.
Liked the overall atmosphere and cinematography.
It shines with bittersweetness, small moments and touching philosophical aspects. Story and characters are relatable for those, who suffered the same in their lives. It may not be as enjoyable if you are not aware of what the characters are going through. However, it's told in a sweet way. Depends on you.
Worth a watch. 🖤

I love Pete Davidson I'd totally hangout with him and Kaley Coco is great! Kinda clever how it's about a tanning bed that time travels and charming romance throughout a fair amount of mental illness mashed in well. I'd love to experience the charm the 2 leads seem to go it's fascinating even it's slightly dark all the cute bonding is a genius flow of events. Not much comedy only a couple silly bits, sweet, great stories, and wow this isn't what I expected it stays interesting regardless of what others said I don't think it's slow, it's brilliant fun! The poop out the end of a rainbow reference is a awesome line, I'm glad I put this on.

When that one really good dream I had in my life is made as a movie. Special and unique version of the conversation made by two really good actors in leading roles. My appreciation goes to all cast and production as well. Nothing was mediocre or banal to me about this loving chance of someone to keep the other person happy close to own life. Just one day as all other days in everybody's hard as hell life to be worth of trying when you know who is your reason to stay. The real connection we have is always someone else, the other human being and nothing else ever. Why is this so hard to believe?

Kaley Cuoco and Pete Davidson star in this dark rom com about a girl that meets a guy at a bar but she doesn't exactly tell him everything at the jump of their "Meet Cute" encounter. The movie makes a big left turn at about the 20 minute mark and then keeps you guessing about what is going on for the majority of the movie.
Pete and Kaley have pretty compelling chemistry between the two of them and their comedic timing plays off well of each other. There are some instances where it is a little confusing following "the rules" of what is going on that need a little more fleshed out writing to fully grasp. The movie also deals with certain aspects of depression that can be triggering for some people, but overall the movie has a lot of heart. If you're a fan of these two actors and dark rom coms then you will appreciate this movie and over look the confusing bits. I found it to be entertaining and thoughtful.

I was sceptical about the pitch. I was expecting a cheap sci-fi time loop story with a female main character to add some kind of easy romantic lines, just goodish enough to have something playing on while doing something else but in fact no, it was quite interesting and I enjoyed it entirely.
The trailer is actually very deceiving because :
Instead you will get a quite clever psychological story about a girl trying to run from her life through her obsession about a man. It is moving, and generic enough for most of us to identify to. The genre mixing is clever, the sci fy bit is a nice allegory, the comedy side gives some rythme and the drama brings some depth. Congratulations to Noga Pnueli for the story and to Kaley Cuoco, her part is basically the whole movie and she did it well.
My disappointment comes from the feeling of tight schedules and fast editing. There are some very good ideas and a good bas for more twists. A bit more time, work and probably money could have made this movie amazing. Anyway, it was a great surprise and that is rare enough to be saluted.

- If you want sci fi, you will be disappointed
- If you want a comedy, you won't laugh a lot
- If you want romance, well it is served with a sadness topping

This is a really good film.
But whoever was in charge for marketing this film needs to lose their job. It is sold in every way as a RomCom. The name of the film, the images just in publicity, even the synopsis reads as a RomCom.
What this movie really is is a deep look at mental health. About struggles we may have in life and the things we think we need to make our problems go away. It's a really challenging piece about society and the world we live in. It's many things. But it is not a Romantic Comedy.
There are outstanding performances from the two leads (who carry about 95% of the whole film).
It really jumps around, there are lots of changes of direction, just when you think you know where it's going, a new layer is revealed.
But because of the awful job done by the marketing team, the audience that will truly appreciate the film will probably pass it by.
People expecting a RomCom will be frustrated, turn off after 15 minutes and leave a bad rating and review.

I don't quite get all of these negative reviews so im leaving this one here in hopes of giving this movie some boost which it surely deserves in my opinion.
Please don't judge it by the trailer, it doesn't give off the vibe of the movie and i think that it's a pity because people might not give it a chance based off of that two minutes, when in fact it does deserve more views from those individuals who enjoy a more of a slow burn romcom kinda story that is heartwarming, funny and definitely is not a meaningless watch.
( And i say this as someone who isn't even that much of a pete davidson fan.)

If you like Pete Davidson and Kaley Cuoco, you may enjoy this movie. I felt like it was rather slow and dragged in a lot of places.
The concept was decent, but it could have been much more interesting and funnier. You could argue that it was a drama and wasn't intended to be funny, but it sure felt like it was supposed to be a romantic comedy. In that respect, it missed the mark in my opinion.
At only 90 minutes, it wasn't a total waste of time. If you like the actors, and you are looking for something to watch, you could do worse than spending an evening watching this. Just don't get your hopes up too high.

This is the darkest version of time traveling rom-com I have ever watched. And I've watched quite a number on time traveling movies, especially rom-coms. This is the first one I've ever get a portion of suicide and depression in it. And weirdly, it's not dampening the romance part. And for that, this movie deserves an extra star. Also casting Kaley Cuoco in it was a really good decision. She is a force of nature in comedy genre. Pete Davidson was also a great match for her, they had a great chemistry. It made the movie felt even better. I have watched quite a few bad time traveling movies, this one doesn't fall in the same category. Watch it, you won't regret it.

This film definitely has its flaws, but for the most part I found myself really enjoying it. I expected the sweet and playful side but wasn't expecting the deep moments which was what kept me hooked.
It benefits from two solid lead performances from Kaley Cuoco and Pete Davidson, who each have a great individual energy that multiplies when paired together. Kaley in particular is terrific and I'd really like to see her getting more and more film roles to show off her talent.
The story is pretty well thought out and has some interesting ideas and angles to it. It makes for a fun film with plenty of layers to think through.
I do think it could have pushed a bit further in parts. The emotional moments could have been sadder, the comedy could have been funnier, the romantic moments could have been cuter. It was all good but if pushed a little more it could have been great.
Overall though a really neat romcom with an interesting take.

I'd pay to see this couple not get together. When you start a romcom with such a terribly mismatched and poorly cast couple, there's really nowhere to go but down - as evidenced by this film. I suppose the time travel premise was necessary to entice anyone to even give this movie a try, but when the characters are so unappealing and off-putting, no amount of sci-fi gimmickry would have saved it. I couldn't tell you how it ended, since it was a tossup as to which was the more annoying character and ultimately I concluded it didn't matter enough to figure it out or finish the film. Just another example of streaming services having too much capital to throw around at scripts that never would have been greenlit in a tighter capital market where market forces and competition would have led to a far better movie being made.

This is advertised as a rom-com. It is not funny and is just barely romantic. It is desperate and sad. Sheila, the romantic lead character, is not having the best day of her life as she claims when she first steps into the nail salon. Kaley Cuoco is a talented and engaging performer who does add dimension to her character but even she can not save this film. The only revelation is Pete Davidson. The man can act and act quite well, and he proves it in this should-have-been-better movie. I want to see him in every project he does in the future. Upside is, Kaley looks good in orange and white gingham, but not so much in a mustache. Watch it for those two. They did their best.

This movie was the biggest letdown - I couldn't wait to see it, but it was a huge disappointment to me. I understand the premise, however, something didn't click - I don't think there was any chemistry between the lead characters. I didn't like Kaley's acting - I thought Pete acted well. I never watched the sitcom she was in, nor did I watch Pete on SNL. I only knew Pete because he dated Kim Kardashian, and I was curious to see him in a movie. I was ready to see a new romantic movie, but this one was barely watchable for me. I almost turned it off. I don't understand all the high reviews on here.

Groundhog Day on a budget? Maybe? Definitely has the feel of a play. It's worth watching.
There are some poignant moments and some good comedy ones too.
Kaley Cuoco puts me in mind of a modern-day Goldie Hawn. She's delightful.
Pete Davidson (has terrible taste in women) puts in a solid performance. His acting ability is definitely gaining maturity.
It's a bit too arthouse cutesy. Nevertheless not sickeningly so. There are no roll your eyes moments.
There is no doubt the script could have been better, sharper, more grabbing. However! It's fine as is.
A good time to watch this film would be a lazy Sunday afternoon.
I've given it a 7 but it's probably a 6.

Pete Davidson is simply unwatchable. I don't understand how he keeps getting cast for movies. He is a terrible actor who cannot pull off this role and didn't make for a believable love interest in the movie.
The plot itself is boring and has been done so many times before. The characters were not likeable or interesting enough to hold my attention to the end. I couldn't watch past the first half of the movie.
I guess the 3 stars are for Kaley Cuoco, although you can easily exchange this character for the one she played in Flight Attendant. Not a very original performance, but she is a great actor.

Firstly, if you haven't realised by now that going into a movie with very specific expectations based on a synopsis or trailer is a bad idea, I just don't know what to tell you. Reviews are hardly any more reliable but I'm going to try anyway....
Now we have that out of the way -
As others have mentioned, this isn't a rom com. It isn't really a comedy in general; there are genuinely humorous moments (think wry grin as opposed to outright laughter) but the film is not trying hard to be funny as its main objective. It's also not a sci-fi. The time machine essentially serves as a McGuffin, it facilitates the telling of the story but is not central to the actual message of the story. Pulp fiction was not about what is inside the briefcase, and this is not a movie about time travel. It's about emotional baggage, mental health, love and the futility of trying to force someone else to change.
This is one of the better movies I've seen in quite a while. The acting, dialogue and cinematography are great. The plot is smart without trying too hard (Christopher Nolan, I'm looking at you) and deftly tackles some moderately dark subject matter in a tasteful and realistic way.
I hope I've convinced you to give it a try. If not, I'll come back tomorrow and perhaps then it'll work...

Sad I didn't enjoy this as much as I wanted to. I really like both of these actors and I've liked almost everything I've seen them in. I thought I would laugh at least once, and I didn't. I mean, maybe I smiled a time or two but that's about it. Kind of boring, it just drug out...the same thing over and over again. Like a boring Groundhog Day. Be different if the day was funny in any way. I realize this day is centered around a matter that not funny, but they could've thrown some joke in here and there. I mean Pete Davidson is supposed to be funny. I get it if he wants to branch out into more serious roles, but this wasn't even a serious movie! Truthfully it was just a boring movie. I don't think I'd recommend it and I certainly won't watch it again.

And that is certainly true with this film. The original thing about this film is that there are very few other storylines in it. The film is about one incident that is; Sheila's time travel and the consequences that it brings, and that is what it is about. It also does not elaborate on how the time loop arises; the film is also not concerned with the credibility of time loops. What you get is a conversation between two people that is warm, sometimes deep, sometimes silly, but always thrilling. It could be a theatre play with two actors. Still, it remains captivating, and yet the film is not slow, far from it. Mind you there are no action scenes in it.
The acting is good. Both actors portray credible characters who evolve in a consistent manner.
An intelligent romantic time loop film.

The problem with this movie is that it has a beginning and an end, but the middle is very repetitive. Holding major twists and pull them off after stagnant 10 minutes doesn't make the stagnant time better, it makes me think "couldn't they just cut all of the scenes out there and get to the case?".
They should have made it a short 50 minutes TV movie or add a writer and add more content to fill the original length (85minutes). Here is a proof: watch the movie from minute 60 until the end, and u will see that you haven't missed anything from the first 60 minutes. Squeeze the first 60 minutes to10 minutes and you get a 35minutes video.
This movie isn't bad, I actually liked it, but it is like watching a reality TV show and watch endless annoying commercials just for few payoffs along the show.
