  Review by Sally Jane Black

  I did not expect a direct call for feminism in film scripts to be written into this film. It elevates the film itself to a higher standard, though, for it to acknowledge an awareness of that same issue. The story is then complicated by the knowingness of the author/director/cast/etc., not because ignorance is forgivable but because acting against feminism while being aware of it suggests that you have active disdain or disagreement with feminism. Certainly, there are valid critiques of the various schools, waves, and movements within feminism, but the idea, the core of the idea, of equality of the sexes, is to my mind irrefutable.

  The results are mixed.

  It lets Piven off a bit too easily. It still…

  Review by Katrina ★½

  Insane to watch a pre-hair transplant Jeremy Piven in a talent agency (okay a brief scene) pretending to be a writer while Audrey Horne cries over him. As someone who loves Entourage and Twin Peaks this was a treat, but so boring. 

  I hate Amazon but Prime Video has nutty programming. Yes I rated this low but I love finding obscure lowbrow films.

  Review by Learic Life ★★★

  Review by Mike Mariano ★★★

  Last night and the final half hour this morning. It’s cute! Although the last act is only a weak comic misunderstanding plus three different montages.

  Alex Rocco plays Piven’s father and tries to set him up with Yeardley Smith! If you ever wanted to see Roger Meyers, Jr. flirt with a drunk Lisa Simpson—well, I never want to read your fan-fiction.

  Review by FOXX5 ★★★

  Entertaining and cute but silly romcom. It follows the standard pattern but still fun to watch. Jeremy Piven and Sherilyn Fenn had good chemistry.

  Review by Dmitry_Karpyuk ★★½

  Банальный и слишком уж сказочно-приторный ромком, но неожиданная парочка Пивен и Фенн, что называется, ласкала взор.
