Mild, mindless & harmless way to pass a little time. Actors are all affable. Characters are barley a sketch of actual humans but it is a movie after all...but I don't think we even know what two of the main characters do for a living...yet they're all likably "messed up" in their own ways. Lots of highly photogenic NYC spots. Favorite throwaway line: "OMG The Whitney" as if a NY'er wouldn't know where the Whitney is (you would have to be blind not to see it before you came off the stairs from the Highline - there is an entrance up there)...did make me miss NYC for a hot second. Do a bunch of Wordle (the website not the Times) while you watch it - definitely don't need your whole brain for this. No loose ends and - shocking - everyone is happily paired up at the end.
IDKW they threw in a scene with an alcoholic parent. Is that a last ditch effort to give the character's pain some depth? Did they forget to edit it out? There is no backstory for these characters - there's barely a "now" story, unless you catch a street sign you don't even know where they live. Isn't where you live in NYC as much as your identity as what you do for a living?
