About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a breezy, older-skewing romantic caper with bickering exes, low-stakes thrills, and a silly heist vibe, somewhat like Finding Your Feet or Larry Crowne; Not for you if you need a tight, believable plot.
Pros: charming lead chemistry; light, easy laughs; pretty French locations | Cons: far-fetched plot; predictable beats; humor hit-or-miss
