Good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.
Similar to "Wedding Daze", this a modern day fable where communication is necessary for happiness.
Getting married too soon, and/or on a bed of lies, is an obvious opportunity for plenty of abuse humor.
The story is a fun rollercoaster of ups and downs of love and come uppences.
Fiona Gubelmann is great and pretty much carries the movie, but the writing surrounding everyone is good enough that is makes for a humorous experience.

The sound, the camera work, the lightning, and the realism of the effects (like the accident) are of the lowest quality. I have no doubt about that.
The script could need some polishing, but the story as a whole was kind of enjoyable.
The actors were pretty decent, or even good, but as it happens, the actors cannot carry the whole weight of a movie and compensate for other flaws.

This film is a low budget terrible script shot on some cheap camera that makes it look like an iphone was used or a cheap camera. The acting is pretty lacking and not sure how anyone could rate this as a 10 unless they worked on the film which looks like shot locally in LA. I give it a 1 for being resourceful in stealing so many free cool locations.
It seems like reviewers either loved it or hated it with no in between. I had been debating whether to watch on Prime which is why I checked out IMDB reviews - to help me decide. The result was I had to watch it to see which side I agreed with.
I liked it. Very low budget but it didn't feel cheap. The characters are all likeable and the acting was good - no-one took it too seriously which kept it light. And it was funny. It had some filler but generally it moved along at a reasonable pace. Did I mention there are some very funny scenes.
I will probably watch it again and soon because it left me with a good feeling.

Rotten acting, terrible camera work, and not a funny line in sight. I gave this rubbish a 1/10 in the hope of balancing the current 6.9. I'll be very surprised if this ends up with better than 4.5 when real voters start voting it down instead of the cast voting it up.

This is not a super duper budget romantic comedy, its not a dead serious, academy award winning stuff but its jolly good fun all the way through. its about internetdating(so its a cliche) but this was a bit more twisted and cute than lots of other b-movies of the comedy genre seen lately. its lots of good old slapstick, and fun of the kind you realize 3 secs before it comes, and it really made me laugh especially in the 15 first minutes. apart from slapstick, its also spangled with a lot of dipstick humour, and a bit of adultery, so if you like that the grumpy old man says,take a look at ''the way we weren't''

Great story idea and a great cast. But everything else (e.g. the script, direction, editing, and camera work) is terrible! I've seen tons of B movies and straight-to-video movies, but this looks more like a student film, like maybe a B or B- student. I don't know how so many successful actors were roped into participating. I'm actually very interested in how this movie came together. I imagine they ran out of time and money and were forced to submit a hastily thrown together rough cut, which they didn't even have time to review upon completion.
I know, there is only one truth. These two don't stretch it, they simply disregard it in dual attempts to be what they think the other is looking for.
It's sweet and cute with likable characters, some decent funny parts and it doesn't take itself too seriously.
Oh, and any director who is willing to tease China, Inc. in today's film industry deserves some credit for bravery.
I give it credit because I've seen worse but overall the film is crap. I'm quite pleased I managed to get through it. The story is poor, the acting is poor, the effects are beyond poor. I can't imagine that anyone whose seen the film can actually rate it 10/10.

I can appreciate the cast and their friends trying to bump the ratings, but geeeez! This is one horrible film. I mean REALLY horrible. The camera is quite possibly an iPhone, because it's moving around so much I'm getting dizzy. I'm guessing a couple of high school kids put this together for their 10th grade film making class.

After the first 5 minutes of a "guy falling a down a hill" I turned it off. It was the worst fake fall (it was a dummy clearly and so bad). Please just save yourself and watch ANYTHING else. Amazon prime really needs to get some quality movies. Quality > quantity people 🙄

Should be ranked much lower, it's just a bad movie, I can't think of anything good to say about it.
I had to turn this movie off after 5 - 10 minutes due to extreme language. IMBd says no profanity - a horrible lie! I'm so glad there were no children in the room. It went far beyond a "mature" rating.
Maybe not good *good* but funny enough? It's like a less PG Hallmark movie. The only thing going for this movie are the recognizable cast members. Other than that, it looks like a hastily thrown together middling
film student project.
Most surprising detail: the director is a sound guy! For someone whose career mostly dealt with sound, the audio of this movie is quite terrible.

I was rooting for this couple to make it work from the very beginning of the movie! The leads are so likable, individually, and absolutely loveable as a pair. Crazy, over-the-top antics add to the entertainment value of the film.

The two leads are both very charming and the script is full of little surprises you don't see in run-of-the-mill romcoms. Well done.

I'd previously only seen her on Good Doctor where she's a villain but she's really hilarious in this straight to streaming romcom.
Loved this cute movie! The characters have a good chemistry and the story is great, funny and warm. I enjoyed it !
The movie was a riot! I always appreciate a movie that makes me laugh throughout the shows Well done!

This is a gem of a movie! Charming story, witty dialogue and great characters. The writing is superb, and many of the scenes are laugh-out-loud funny. A great little romantic comedy to watch alone or with someone you like/love.
