Well over half the movie is setting up one embarrassing situation after another for Eve. If that's your kind of humor, take 10 stars. It's not mine.
There are some tiny clues that build through the movie as to where the real romance is going to be, but to have confidence in those clues it helps to know how these movies work and that at least one half of the real romance will be the star of the movie. Along with embarrassing herself, Eve was moving from one couple to another trying to set them up through most of the movie. All this makes the plot unusual at least to some degree.
Many rom/coms have the lead couple start with antagonism. There was some antagonism between the two in this movie, but mostly it was just a working relationship with two people who had conflicting goals.
Finally about 2/3rd through the fact that there might be a relationship starts to come together and then boom, almost immediately the conflict. Other than one meal, there was no relationship building.
So it's a different approach and many people will find it funny. I had a hard time getting through it.
