Nicola Posener and Jake Stormoen in Bookworm and the Beast (2021)

Review by AncientScout

Bookworm and the Beast

2/10

ughhhh

I watch a lot of these rom-coms and hallmark types. This one was one of the worst I've ever seen. It was painful at times. Grant was not a likeable character at all. I kept waiting for the plot change from "bad" Grant to "good" Grant, but it never happened. I found myself rooting against him the entire movie. Izzy was cute at times, but dumb as a door knob.

The screen writing was so bad. Grant puts her dad in a coma and Izzy shows so little concern. After her initial visit to the hospital, Izzy barely acknowledges her dad exists, let alone shows compassion for his pain and life threatening condition. She seemed ready to walk down the aisle with Grant the day after Grant almost killed her dad. I found it hard to root for Izzy.

It's a bad romance flik when you find yourself hoping the lead characters just go away.
