Honest, refreshing, stylistically interesting rom-com for 2019

The film is honest and optimistic, where other films with the same theme tend to wallow in the deeps of human suffering. Writer/director/producer Ann Lupo found a way to accomplish what I think I've only seen Orson Welles do - star, write, direct, and tell her own story with an honesty that often becomes harder to find the more hands touch a piece of art. Because of the single-point-of-contact the viewer has with the story itself, it is as clear as day.

Jaunty and fun with creative stylistic choices that could be at home in a Coen brothers movie (Big Lebowski maybe?), that only add to the enjoyment. This movie is worth seeing.

Extremely impressive and entertaining debut!

Amazing work from a first time director. Visually imaginative, compelling story arc, great performances. Subverts expectations while exploring tried and true themes. And the occasional dark turn is all the more powerful in the way it's contrasted with fantasy and fun.

Navel-gaze-y & hokey

The movie feels like it was written with too little perspective on the events it was trying to depict. Throughout the love story, we see cut-aways to interviews and fantasy sequences that only serve to detract from the plot in their lack humor and insight; basically just beating us over the head with what's happening.

Refreshing and Funny

I loved this film! It was more like real life than so many films. It was fun, realistic in it's message, and had magical times in its telling. Give us more Ms. Lupo!
