About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a romantic comedy that looks past the meet-cute and into the messy reality of marriage, with a laid-back, talky vibe; Not for you if you want nonstop laughs or pure escapism like Multiplicity.
Pros: sweet romantic setup; sharp one-liners; Paris charm | Cons: uneven tone; drags after marriage; some awkward bits
