Isn't It Romantic

An average movie

“I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, I have to admit that the damned thing was not so bad at all after all. Indeed, the whole anti-romantic comedy concept was actually fairly entertaining. Sure, it might seem really silly but, at least, it was refreshing to see a movie and a main character which were actually conscious about the fact that everything happening was actually seriously ridiculous. It was also a nice touch that Josh (the character played by Adam Devine) was the only one who didn’t seem to be under the ‘spell’ but it was maybe slightly disappointing that the main character didn’t notice it right from the start.

"There's something wrong when while watching this 2019 big budget studio release I can't help but feel that everything it is trying to do was done so much better in a 2019 episode of a small-ish budget CW comedy musical show called Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Seriously, the 11th episode of season 4, aired about two weeks before this film was released theatrically, and it has a similar plot of a character realizing they're in a romantic comedy, then using the tropes within it to make their life better wi"
