I'm all for the unexpected resurgence of romantic comedies, but this would have to receive good reviews for me to be interested in it. Keanu Reeves seems to be giving a charmingly subdued performance here.

 

I think if there's anything wrong with what I saw in the trailer, it's some stale directorial choices.

@CoolioD1 This seems up your alley.

So this is what happens after John Wick 2 ending...He meets Winona and they both get a plane. 

 

It's also R rated, by the way.

[WrathOfHan]

Is this a real movie?

This looks so bad, but I kinda wanna see it just for drunk Winona and deadpan Keanu.

SHITTY KEANU REEVES FEATURE ON AUGUST 24 WITH THIS AND REPLICAS

[Zakiyyah6]

I want to see it because of the leads but I agree with @Slambros that the direction looks dull.

[SLAM!]

There's a lot of comedies coming out in August (The Spy Who Dumped Me, Dog Days (to an extent), Crazy Rich Asians, and The Happytime Murders). But the good news is that this film isn't directly competing with any of them on the same weekend -- in fact, it'll be the only comedy on its own weekend. And recent weekends have sort of proved that comedies can coexist with each other theatrically under the right circumnstances; Blockers, I Feel Pretty, Super Troopers 2, Overboard, and Life of the Party are all doing relavitely well in a fairly crammed comedy landscape (although both I Feel Pretty and Life of the Party only have themselves to blame in regards to their ridiculously inflated budgets). This film looks cheap, so it may not have to do much to be a sleeper hit. And you know what? While it does look a bit dull, it does seem fairly harmless to me. I'm open to a pleasant surprise here, even if there's a really, really, really, really low chance of one.

This is actually what happens to Dr. Keanu from Something's Gotta Give 15 years after playwright Diane Keaton dumped him for manwhore Jack Nicholson.

I really hope this one turns out to be good. I'm always interested in good romantic comedies to watch at home and I obviously really like both of the actors here.

This looks like one of those films that will be screened in as little cinemas as possible and find itself online in full HD on release day.

Looks charming.

Would be quite fascinating if these two, of all people, were the ones who finally brought back the romcom.

YES!!!! Bring back the ROM COM!!!!!

 

Im a 25 year old man and I own How to Loose a Guy in 10 days on Blu ray. Bring it. 

 

I think it looks funny and I'm all for some good rom com.  

[baumer]

So much cynicism here.  If they had capes and super powers, would you be more interested?

[Zakiyyah6]

I am interesting in it. I love cute movies like this. They keep me sane after all the horror and Superhero movies that I admittedly love. I hope the actors can will it to be good and that it makes money.

[Rman823]

Well at least this movie doesn’t require them to do terrible accents. 

[manny1234]

Love to see this!
