Cute holiday film
25 December 2022
Overall, this is a cute holiday movie. The two leads have good chemistry from the start, and it's refreshing to see how their attraction develops naturally and with minimal angst or contention. The drama between Taylor and her parents that led to the whole fake relationship setup is handled gracefully and tugs at the heartstrings in all the right places. The rapport among the actors playing Taylor, Olive, Cheryl, and Frank is so funny and warm that it would have been nice to see more screen time devoted to that and to the blossoming romance. As it was, the initial setup dragged quite a bit with almost thirty minutes of story before the two leads finally meet. But beyond that pacing issue, Looking for Her is a fun and adorable film I'd be happy to add to my annual holiday watchlist.
