L'Amour au choix

Cami is a terrible person which leads to an unrelatable movie plot and a lackluster experience.

The basic plot of the experience is help Cami cheat on her loving and committed boyfriend for the past 3 years, which lets be real here, that's gross Netflix. Even if you pick the boyfriend centric options it still leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

The acting by the three gentlemen suitors is pretty good but they mainly coast on their good looks. Being a fan of all three actors previous works and knowing what they are capable of this what's a major disappointment.

Overall I'm choosing not to love this...

There is a singing scene between Rex, the rock star, and laura Marano. It is freakishly close to a singing scene in Austin and Ally between Laura marano and Austin--Ros Lynch. Both songs are pretty and there's even a similar "lean on" lyric. And in both Laura Marano plays a singer with stage fright. The scene has very little to do with the actual plot. It's just amazingly close to Austin and Ally. Laura Marano must have had a strong deja vu. Meanwhile I had no idea Rex was Avan Jogia (Beck) from Victorious. He did a good job. I like when actors appear as characters and you don't recognize them at all. The movie is good fun and if you're an Austin and Ally fan you will love the singing scene.

An interesting concept - having some say in the story narrative. You could rewatch the movie for an entirely different outcome.

The main character has 3 potential suitors and you can choose what to do at key moments....for example to meet with them or not. The 3 suitors seem to offer either commitment, risk, or revisiting 1st love. I imagine there is a choice to end up alone too. Sometimes the choices you make lead to unexpected outcomes, which is similar to real life I guess.

Quirky, fun concept.

One negative is that you have to be quick with your choices, otherwise it will choose for you.

I understand the main logic behind the plot. All are very cliche and common personalities we all have around us. But the missing thing is the emotions which is mainly the only reason behind the types of decisions given in the movie. There has to be a more story behind every character and their relationship so it feels more realistic. But it's an interactive movie /game afterall, shouldn't be taken too seriously. I feel kind of glad that these type of common uncertainties before marriage/ during relationships are out in the open now. Many may find themselves in the show and it may provide them a new way of thinking.

This new twist on a hallmarkesque pg romcom was surprisingly engaging! Fun to watch with others and discuss the possible choices. You have a chance to go back and redo the last selection and see what happens if you take the plot in a different direction. Yes, all the choices end up in some version of a happily ever after but is that so bad? The heroine is charming and sweet without being too saccharine and there's enough tongue-in-cheek humor to elevate the experience beyond bland fluff. It doesn't take itself too seriously as a film which allows the viewer to just grab the popcorn, sit back with your controller in hand and enjoy!
