About
You might enjoy this if you like cheeky, light 80s-style farces with romantic mix-ups and a guilty-pleasure vibe, a bit like The Woman in Red; Not for you if dated jokes and sleazy setups are a dealbreaker.
Pros: goofy 80s charm; lots of misunderstandings; breezy feel-good laughs | Cons: dated sexual humor; thin story; uneven comedy
