Surprisingly fun old school rom com.

Certainly an original premise even if it is just draped over a formula we’ve seen before. But two likable leads make the gimic work, and it has a lighthearted and fun feel to it (director did Easy A and Anyone But You).

Definitely good for a Friday night watch with the Mrs or Mr

quote:

Academy Award® nominee Monica Barbaro (A Complete Unknown, Top Gun: Maverick) and BAFTA nominee Callum Turner (Masters of the Air, Fantastic Beasts franchise) star as Allie and Owen, two love-starved strangers who crash into each other in an ever-so-slightly fictionalized New York City on the one night of the year when single people are allowed to have sex. Recently dumped Owen and hopeful romantic Allie might be the only two singles in the city looking for more than just a quick encounter. They both feel a spark when they meet, but a series of missteps and side quests complicate their night, keeping them apart. As they each race toward and away from each other across the city, they just might discover that the one thing they want most is closer than they think.

Yeah that’s the gimmick. It’s basically The Purge but with sex.

I know I know, it sounds weird but honestly it isn’t that serious and you don’t have to really understand why or how this all happened.

It’s just the inciting twist that sets up why these two are in such a hurry to hook up, there is a ticking clock. It just sets the comic situation in motion and just takes a suspension of disbelief to look into that fictional world and enjoy the predicament it puts them in.

Again, it’s light hearted and not a serious examination of that world, it’s pure rom com.

Yeah very big fan


Glad some others have enjoyed it as well.

This seems to be exactly the type of movie that used to be made all the time that has kind of disappeared from modern Hollywood.
