They forgot to write the love story for this love story

Saw this on Gaga and thought I’d give it a try. It really didn’t work for me for a number of reasons:
- The production values are practically nonexistent
- The acting is quite stilted and awkward
- There are way too many characters despite a short run time and little room for story
- The story, such as it was, felt disjointed and haphazard. It relies on the “insta love” trope where two people meet and are suddenly, inexplicably in love despite any real chemistry, meaningful interaction, or character development. The characters are adults but act like kids and there’s no depth to the relationship whatsoever.

It’s only two hours long but I started watching it at 1.5 speed just to get it over with.
