Re: Isn't It Romantic
A total charmer. It pretty openly wears its heart on its sleeve and is equal parts funny and sweet. The script is also sharp and the entire cast is great, particularly Wilson.

Re: Isn't It Romantic
Liam Hemsworth was actually pretty good here. Surprised me.
It's a cute movie. All the amusing parts were pretty much in the trailer but Rebel Wilson was surprisingly likable here.

Re: Isn't It Romantic
Unfortunately Isn't It Romantic is no different than those cliched rom-coms it's making fun of. The fun of the jokes it makes of the rom-com cliches are decent though, it gave me enough to chuckle about. It just doesn't lead to much of a better conclusion than the average rom-com, and with the learning curve of the protagonist to loving oneself playing out pretty much the same as I Feel Pretty it has little to boast about. It's watchable because of Wilson's reflective jokes on her imaginary world in a film, including a good Liam Hemsworth playing the Australian hotel magnate, but besides that it's pretty empty around it.

Re: Isn't It Romantic
I'm surprised this hit Netflix 3 or 4 after theatrical but I gird it played out in theatre anyway.
Likeable film.
