I had way more fun and enjoyment than I could have ever expected with this one... a Rebel Wilson led comedy feature? Can she hold her own? Really?
What makes this film work is that it knows what it wants to be. I see many others are saying the opposite and I disagree. Sure there were more rom com tropes that they could have made fun of, but the fact this is like a modernized version of 1993's Groundhog's Day or 1991's Delirious with tons of charm and a very charismatic ensemble (that looked like they were having too much fun) really helps against its flaws.
The usually smarmy Adam Devine gets into his best film role yet as the main love interest to Wilson's down-on-her-luck character. I guess their over-the-top romance in the Pitch Perfect series got them to be besties and they decided to do it again.
Best scene is when they go to karaoke. This is a super enjoyable flick.
