TLDR

So, you don't jump in love?

What it's about

Following a flop comeback album, John Allman (Harry Connick Jr) retreats into a small island looking to keep a low-profile—only to rekindle an old love.

The take

The film certainly catches you by surprise within its opening minutes, setting the bounds for its humor. That, plus the very straightforward web of characters on this island just makes everything funnier by default. On the romcom end, every new wrinkle to the John Allman lore adds all sorts of tension and twists to the romance story we root for. The role of romance almost seems secondary to John’s reclusivenes, which ties into the story’s interesting primary location on the edge of a cliff. It’s still a cheesy and ridiculous romcom, but also self-aware and accountable, showing you that love isn’t stupid, just willing to look it.

What stands out

That's a nasty but hilarious title for this movie.
