Lacking romance and comedy.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Editor's note: This piece was written during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the movie being covered here wouldn't exist.

Max Stevenson is a germaphobe, anti-social, and riddled with neuroses that he works through with his therapist. She suggests he get a dog to help with his social anxiety with people. Enter Chloe, a darling rescue that shares a resemblance to Lady from Lady and the Tramp. She lightens Max’s life with her sweet presence, but Max isn’t the only man in her life. Nicole is a hot mess with a chip on her shoulder that has closed herself off to romance and other deep connections.

The writing could be better. The movie moves through the motions to stir up emotions with Nicole and Max, unearthing their trauma as they spend more time together. But while there are occasionally pieces that might elicit a strong response, the film sheepishly skirts around any heavy stuff with a lighthearted affectation that is not supported by anything else. The film's comedy could be more inspired and practical, too.
