Cliched and slight, this romcom is paint-by-numbers.
7 August 2022
The premise is fantastic but for me it just didn't deliver. I wasn't invested in either of our romantic leads-there were no real stakes and the external/internal conflict felt manufactured. Possibly another movie playing for laughs at the expense of saying something meaningful-for example, this movie could have found something new to say about second/third generation migrants being caught in inter-generational crosshairs. Instead, it's really the fake relationship trope with nothing new to make it compelling or even interesting. I only made it to the mid-point before turning it off. I hope it's more appealing for other viewers, as it's great to see movies being made with and for people of colour.
