Prise au jeu

Can we please stop with the same thing over and over again? I get it, you think it works. It doesn't. We've been over this formula of movies since the 90s, the fact that they're predictable makes them really bad. And here's the thing, this movie had all the potential of being good, except when you went into the formula part of it and started to make it the same stupid thing as the 9000 romcoms before it were.

Just stop making movies predictable, the first 30 minutes were great, it had originality and flair, and then you started with the whole "girl finally wants to get the guy" part and it sucked BADLY. Please any directors that see this review, take a note and stop making this garbage, no one wants to see it.

6/10 predictable formulaic same old story, no new spin.

There's truly nothing like a slow-burn friends to lovers story that really gets me going. I wanna experience falling in love with my best friend again.

I was rooting for them the whole time, they had such good chemistry. I love gina rodriguez i swear she can do no wrong in these roles

it was hard to not see jane the virgin, winston from new girl, lucifer and the guy from the kissing booth but i loved their group dynamic. Also liza?? Ive missed my babygirl

honestly pretty good movie, i thoroughly enjoyed it. Netflix movies usually are hit or miss and i know some people will hate on it but definitely a good casual movie. At least i felt the characters had some sort of chemistry and they're so real for manipulating every situation to get the guy they want

girl i'd fake my whole persona for a hot man with an accent too.

When I first saw this movie advertised I was really excited for it to come out, especially because Tom Ellis is in it. The movie definitely did not disappoint. This film is a great, cute, & funny rom-com. Yes, like some reviews say, it is predictable but most rom-coms are and that's why you love them. The simple storyline doesn't take anything away from how good of a movie this is. I'm actually surprised it doesn't have a higher rating. It was really well cast, everyone does a wonderful job in this, and they all have great chemistry. If you love rom-coms, then you should definitely give this a watch!!

I can never understand critics ratings on Rom-Coms so I never really pay attention when it comes to these kind of movies. In my view, for these to work you have to have a strong talented female lead, good script and be creative with how the love transpires, even if you give some of the clues early. The lead actress, Gina Rodriguez was on point because she was cute, funny and human. Most of us regardless of age don't understand our own feelings and she eventually got it which I thought played out well with the script. Where they messed up with her is that I really never understood the reason for the "one night stand" process or maybe they didn't flush the reasoning out clearly. I think the male counterparts were weak because Mr. Lucifer didn't seem to fit the gorgeous, supposedly adult male part and Mr. Wyans seems to have good chemistry with Gina but his mood was to negative looking for some reason and he was pessimistic most of the time so the obvious was noticed early in the movie. I won't spoil anything by talking about the romance and love areas of the movie. I think these type stories should be short limited series, like 4-5 episodes to flush out all the back stories like the Koreans do with there kdramas, which are excellent at this kind of material.

Overall, good job by Gina Rodriguez and she pretty much carries this across the finish line!

At first, the main cast of the movie comes across as knock-off, less egregious versions of Barney Stinson from "How I Met Your Mother," but eventually, the movie matures in a way I wasn't expecting it to. I would think a lot of people in their late twenties to early thirties could relate to the struggle of wanting to move from casual dating to serious relationships, and then holding onto dear life anybody who shows promise of a serious relationship. It was cool it all play out.

The movie won't give you a lot to laugh at, but I think it does give you a bit to think about. And that's always nice.
