Anyone But You

A basic romcom. They made no effort whatsoever to set this film apart from its peers. They merely slapped two familiar (and popular) faces on the lead roles, dumped them on the poster, and called it a day. And guess what, it worked. If you ever wonder why some cinema is so lazy, it is because stuff like this sells tickets.

Bea and Ben meet by chance and they immediately hit it off. But after spending a night connecting, their fear takes over and they each go their own way. Six months later they are forced to spend a weekend together again, as they both need to attend the same wedding in Australia.

So yeah, two people, who clearly belong together, and you're just watching the push and pull until the film finally settles down into a predictable finale. The comedy is pretty bland, and the chemistry between the leads is minimal, but the setting is pleasant enough and the pacing is decent. Far from best in class, but not the worst of its kind either.
