Isn't It Romantic (2019)

Wilson is a career woman who cannot bear the ridiculous lies pushed by rom-coms. But, after she bonks her head in the course of being mugged, she literally wakes up in one and becomes desperate to find her way out.

This is a great idea with fun takedowns of the crutches employed by so many films in this genre. But, at almost every turn, I thought they could have gone BIGGER. Rebel Wilson, especially, felt like she was holding back. I only experienced one big laugh and it was over the ferocity of a background player's dance moves during the karaoke scene. Every single bit should have been played with the ferocity of that bartender.
