I saw this when it first came out and again today (2024) and it still holds up. It’s a rom-com with a twist that speaks to women over 35 to 65. Sure, it isn’t a typical life experience that most would have but that’s why we go to the movies, right? For 90 minutes we get to live another reality through someone we can relate to, even if it’s only emotionally. The physical realm of the main character is the fantasy we secretly wish for. It’s funny too, but not too overtly, and definitely witty and smart. I love that all the characters are flawed but lovable.
