One Perfect Match

I've loved Joshua Sasse since "Galavant" and Merritt Patterson is plenty reliable, but this movie underperforms. The pacing is painfully slow -- basically 100 minutes of "I like him but he's my client and I can't date him!" and him not liking his date but not having the spine to say so. The acting from the supporting players is weak and the direction is plodding. And as is typical of GAF movies, the whole thing screams cheap. The guy is the owner of a big hedge fun but he has no papers on his desk? She's a famous matchmaker with a huge client base but has a dinky office and only one assistant? I honestly don't know why this garners so much praise, aside from the holy rollers at GAF in jubilation over a movie that doesn't dare divert from a white cisgender model.

This is an EXCELLENT Movie! It should be shown in all university and college campuses because of the outstanding ethical decisions made by the characters! Hollywood NEEDS MORE WRITERS THAT CAN WRITE IN THIS STYLE!! I LOVED this MOVIE! So REFRESHING AND WELL- DONE in every aspect! The cast was excellent. The background sets were great. Make-up and wardrobe top-notch! Where has the writer(s) been hiding?? I would LOVE to see more movies made with this class of writing! Such a relief not to have to watch perversion and disrespect weaved into a rom-com when trying to relax. This movie deserves awards! I hope it get some and I hope some people in Hollywood take a lesson from the content of this movie!! DOUBLE KUDDOS TO THE WRITER(S)

Great move. Great casting. Great chemistry. Loved this movie! The storyline was typical but so well written and the main character calling himself Gray, and having the high power job with the suits and the general demeanor gave me fifty shades vibes in a very PG rated way. Merritt Patterson is ALWAYS a pleasure to watch in anything she does and the chemistry between these two was off the charts from their very first run in within minutes of the movie starting. You could feel it jumping off the screen. Again kudos to the writing of this film, we need more of this stuff on our screens! The vineyard where they filmed was STUNNING also. A++ all around!!

Movies of this type have taken a nose dive in quality recently. However this one is very watchable.

Some random thoughts:

The movie is shot in a very sterile way. Meaning there is no real sense that the movie takes place in real life but more of a bubble the characters live in by themselves.

The set design is visually beautiful at times. The color palette of the movie is vivid basic colors with simple sets that often look more like art than real life. It makes for a beautiful movie but...see comment above.

Too much circular panning for me.

(I mention these three things first because they, more than the characters or story, are what stood out the most watching the movie.)

The writing is good enough. Nothing crazy here and no overall message the writers/director is trying to push on the audience (so refreshing).

The plot is basic with the only twist being the two main characters having significant confidence issues towards their love lives (it's what makes the plot go). It's hard to believe these characters would have the same issues in real life (who knows maybe they would) but the actors do a decent enough job of selling their personal issues so you can buy into the story.

Overall a good watch if you like these kinds of movies.

Great American Family (GAF) struck it out of the ballpark with this movie!!! The actors/actresses were absolutely amazing! This is not a movie that you can just listen to, it has to be watched, and watched closely. The reason is due to all of the subtle expressions that cross the main characters faces. Wonderful - Enrapturing!! My wife and I were captivated by what was said in these expressions! The supporting cast were fantastic too!! I agree with another poster who said there should be some awards for this movie! And to the person who commented on GAF "holy rollers". Let me just say that these "holy rollers" created an exceptional and heart warming movie that transcends political correctness!!! Kudos GAF and please continue creating such wonderful movies with exceptional actors and actresses!!! I also agree with another poster who pointed out the benefit of the characters reading their own texts! Loved it! You really can't go wrong by watching this movie, just watch it closely!
