I have a weakness for very cheesy romantic Dutch films that are terrible. Because they are always so awful and cliché you just have to laugh. This film... Unfortunately does not have that (lack of) quality. The main character is basically the worst person ever to walk the earth. Her being unsympathetic takes up most of the film. In the end of course she learns a valuable lesson, but even during this process you just want to smack her in the face with an ironing board. It also has all the toxic tropes every Dutch film for women has: the main character is to be celebrated for her behaviour but the men are supposed to be the bad guys because of the exact same behaviour. Did I mention the main character is the worst person ever? This film could be saved only with her funeral at the end, but it's someone else's...
