A Outra Zoey

I wouldn't describe this as Romcom

The love interests don't have much screen time or development and the two leads have very average chemistry.

I think there is a certain disappointment with this movie because the trailer was misleading. The love triangle was very anti climatic and there wasn't much comedy.

I enjoyed the character of Zoey purely because Josephine Langford has such great star quality . I watched this due to me being a fan of hers in the after series and she did not disappoint. I also liked the friendship between her and her best friend, that added a different and interesting twist.

The story itself is fine if you're looking for an easy watch but if you had expectations for a 90's style romcom like me then it doesn't live up to the hype.

Zoey Miller (Josephine Langford) doesn't believe in romantic love and is working on her version of a dating app. She has a meet-cute with Zach MacLaren (Drew Starkey) and the rom-com tropes continue. He gets hit by a car and in a semi-conscious state, he assumes Zoey to be his girlfriend. In reality, he has a new girlfriend in aggressive soccer player Zoey. Zoey Miller is about to tell his parents when his cousin Miles Maclaren (Archie Renaux) shows up.

The first part reminds me a little of While You Were Sleeping. It's got a lot of different rom-coms being mixed together. I'm willing to go with this unusual premise until the family dinner. I don't understand her initial plan. It makes no sense. She wants to sweep Miles off his feet so that he would steal his brain-injured cousin's sweet girlfriend. That's a stupid plan. Even if it works, you've got a guy willing to steal a girlfriend from his brain-injured cousin. There is an easy writing fix. Tell everybody except Zach right from the start. Nobody wants to cause him more trauma so everybody keeps it a secret from him. That would make sense. This does not.

I feel like the best way to describe this film is like "watching Wattpad." Everything they do in this film doesn't feel lifelike at all and I think that's what made it amusing.

Acting was mid, nothing crazy. If u wanna watch this movie, just manage ur expectations. Some parts are kinda cute and some kinda little random.

I feel like Zach is such a cute character, especially after the incident. Pretty predictable plot. This is one of those movies you watch when you don't feel like seeing something very extreme, where you have to pay attention to the details to understand what's going on.

I recommend watching it if you're in the mood for a basic romance movie.

It's predictable, something to watch when you don't want to think too much. I don't watch a lot of romantic comedies, but for some reason this one caught my attention and I even laughed at some scenes.

Just don't go in expecting too much. I actually think that some scenes are performed robotically on purpose, as some kind of "creative intent" or some other lie they're telling this days. But the images are generally beautiful and I liked how the movie looks.

It's so bad, but I couldn't stop watching it.

6/10 - it's not a movie anyone must watch. Go for it if there's nothing else and you want something light.

A weak script and a bum's rush ending, it deserved to have an ending that went beyond Jam Fest. I liked the leads Langford and Starkey, but there was too much time spent on roommate Elle and her love interest Diego and too little time on Zoey's love interest Zach. Amnesia is a formulaic plot and love apps are so overused in rom-coms.

Andie MacDowell is a acting veteran, good in anything she's in. The rest of the cast was ok. Due to the strike we haven't heard from the leads or the writer and the director. Why didn't they interview cast and crew right after the shooting, so they had something for previews and to generate interest in the movie? If Netflix was looking for filler content, this was filler.
