I greatly enjoyed this. I loved that it started with the most hackneyed and overused hallmark movie premise, gave it a twist by making the romantic leads selfish manipulators, but ended as happily and satisfyingly as one could hope for from a rom com. Also, stacked cast! Community reunion! The Afterparty reunion!

Far far better than we expected and yes, Community reunion! I loved that one character called the other out for pulling some "My Best Friend's Wedding" bullshit.
