About
If you enjoy fast-talking, old-Hollywood relationship farce with escalating misunderstandings, this is an easy pick—especially if you like The Awful Truth or I Love You Again; Not for you if you dislike broad slapstick, dated humor, or stories that drag.
Pros: classic screwball energy; strong couple chemistry; big laugh moments | Cons: uneven pacing; contrived misunderstandings; some gags feel dated
