Overview
Two single friends agree to be each others' respective plus one for each wedding they're invited to during a particularly busy nuptial period of their lives.
I had been putting off watching this film for a few weeks now. The “platonic friends navigate the wedding season” genre has been beaten to death in so many mediocre rom coms. I decided to give it a chance based on some of the reviews – this was a good decision.
The film was in fact very different from so many others. I won’t go too far into the details as it might give some of it away (is that possible?). I recently watched and enjoyed Always Be My Maybe – I dare say that this was better. The two leads were excellent and perfectly cast the film seemed to find out a unique niche in the genre. I was invested from beginning to end and it is definitely one of the better films that I’ve seen this year.
