My Review

Possibly marketed as a comedy but I would describe it as a love story. The comedy and romance combination creates an authentic relatable energy to the movie. Charlize and Seth must be good actors because the chemistry of their characters is really satisfying to watch. If you ever wonder if true love exists as i always am this may inspire you.
