  • Estella Ayers
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.

    Loved every minute of it! The dialogue was witty, and the chemistry between the actors was fantastic.

  • Frances Nash
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Megan Wiley
    A fun, light-hearted movie that's perfect for a weekend watch. Not too deep, but enjoyable.
