About

You might enjoy this if you’re in the mood for a silly, low-stakes rom-com with broad jokes and a makeover-driven setup; Not for you if you dislike dated, appearance-focused humor or secondhand embarrassment like in Date Movie.

Pros: a few laugh moments; easy casual watch; occasional charm | Cons: mean-spirited humor; cringe rom-com behavior; predictable makeover plot
