Finding Emily name-checks Casablanca and the stock fiction character Manic Pixie Dream Girl, and at one point shamelessly steals its line-delivery cadence from When Harry Met Sally. But it remains its own story and, in true ’90s fashion, lets us root for the characters, not against all odds, but with them.

Rarer still is comedy direction so inspired from someone making their feature debut. Alicia MacDonald is the real deal. There are dozens of characters here all nailing laughs by being 100 per cent themselves: that takes not only inspired casting and acting, but a person in charge who knows how to wring the juice out of every syllable.

Here, finally, is a smart, funny and sweet story about young love that moviegoing audiences deserve. Yes, the setup is contrived — it even fits almost entirely into a movie trailer — but it’s in a way that’s familiar and grounded enough, and unlike the insanely dystopian “One Night Only.”

Flaws aside, it’s ultimately a pleasant enough way to beat the heat, grab a few laughs, take in a fine soundtrack and find yourself in some good company. But even if your name happens to be Emily, you won’t be fully swept away.

The actors are unlikely to be confused with Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur from the Capra flick, but they have a spring-fresh charm that remains pleasing throughout.

What could have been a quirky, Gen Z take on the rom-com ends up fumbling toward an inevitable conclusion.

Lacking not just in sense but charm and chemistry to boot, this would-be defense of rom-com tropes against our jaded age ends up, instead, far more cynical than any of the criticisms it’s supposedly fighting against.

很可爱的一部电影,不过片中的各种情节都有似曾相识的感觉,感觉像是各种糖水片的大杂烩。不过对于完全没有爱情经历的我,看这种片也是越来越难共情沉浸下去了。以前也许还会因为乐呵乐呵去看,现在看着没任何意思了。
