Mmm I don't know

I liked watching this but I can't willingly or confidently say I actually like the movie itself. It definitely gets better as you watch along, maybe that's because it's two hours long and you get invested in the characters. It felt like a script from a different era, like a 2000's or early 2010's movie for me, where gaslighting, manipulation and all didn't really get you cancelled and they weren't trying to sneak in some agenda into the movie. And the comedy aspect of the movie is the characters put in funny situations instead of just having witty comments or jokes in the dialogue. Just a simple lighthearted romcom, it's not trying to blow you mind away or have you in your feels.

Charlie Day plays the same annoying character in every movie but I liked the rest of the cast so I still wanted to see it through and I'm glad I did because it becomes sorta worth a watch towards the end. The concept is similar to horrible bosses; you help me and I'll help you situation. I'm hesitant to call it a good movie because "10 things I hate about you", "love, Rosie", "Definitely, Maybe", "one day", "50 first dates" etcetera etcetera, those are good movies, they're not the best in the genre, but depending on your taste could make you go like oh I really like that movie. Not this, this is just the good type of okay. I think.
